Many of you who’ve supported me over the years know my story. But this year, my Movember campaign comes with a new layer of meaning — and a powerful twist.

This year, I’m doing Movember from Spain, where I’m by my wife Michele’s side as she faces life-changing surgery she so desperately needs. Without it, she will continue to live in constant pain, losing mobility and battling depression every single day. Her condition is called Lipoedema, a chronic and often misunderstood disease that affects millions of women worldwide.

But as we prepare for this next chapter, I’ve been reflecting on something deeply personal.

Back in 2016, when I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, Michele was the one who stood by me every single step of the way. She was my rock through the darkest times — comforting me, helping me through my depression, supporting me during treatment and recovery with love, patience, and unwavering strength.

She kept me in check, making sure I never missed a doctor’s appointment, a PSA referral, or a pathology test. She made sure I looked after myself when I didn’t feel like doing it.

And because of her… I’m still here today.

And now, I can be here — by her side — when she needs me most.

Sometimes I think about what might have happened if I hadn’t listened, if I hadn’t let her push me to get checked, to get help, to fight. Because if I hadn’t made it through my cancer journey with her by my side, I might not have been here today to help her through hers.

That’s the true power of awareness.
That’s the power of early detection.
That’s the power of love and support.

So this year, my Movember message is simple but deeply personal:
➡️ Don’t wait. Get checked. Talk about it. Support each other.
You never know whose life you might be saving — maybe even the one who will one day save yours.

You can still support my Movember campaign and help raise awareness for men’s health by donating through my Movember page - https://au.movember.com/mospace/1615236.

Let’s make this one count — for all the men, and all the women who stand beside them.

Hey everyone. Just quick up date and a call to action. We have 4 days to go. Just $368 to reach a $20,000 milestone over the past 12 years. It's within our reach. If you haven't already made a small donation, then please do. If you have, but know a family member or a friend who hasn't donated this year, please reach out to them. It is just a question. The answer will be a yes or a no. Its not a biggie. They'll always love you no matter what they say.
