Ray Hoetger and I have spoken with local leaders to remind communities of the pain and suffering of prostate cancer. June 2009 our story began with a diagnosis of an aggressive form of prostate cancer. We also share our story on Capitol Hill, along with other Survivors!
Working with ZERO has given me so many more opportunities to help raise awareness and to be part of ending prostate cancer.
1 in 9 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime. Someone in your family or you may know someone impacted by prostate cancer. Your support is needed as education and awareness for prostate cancer is limited across the nation. Prostate cancer awareness month is in September, I am asking for your support in hopes that you to can challenge and encourage your surrounding communities to join us in raising awareness and education so men can make an informed decision if treatment is needed in their lifetime. Your support means the world to those battling this horrible disease and gets men talking and veterans sharing their story as well. While men are sharing their story, other men and families know they are not alone in this fight and in turn encourage others to share too. Please share the Proclamations on your City, Village and Township Social Media pages as another way to help raise awareness in hopes to also get men to speak up and share too.
