Those who follow my blog closely know that my darling hubby Don was diagnosed with a very aggressive prostate cancer just before Christmas in 2011. 

I have spent many years supporting Breast Cancer foundations, a cause that has been close to my heart, as I have walked through it with several friends, and lots two dear friends in the past two years to the disease. 

I never thought much of Prostate Cancer, and when I did hear the words, like many, I thought it to be a disease that many men get in their 70's or 80's and still have when they die many years later, NOT of prostate cancer, but of natural causes. Now I know first hand, that this is simply not the case, in fact, quite often the opposite.


DID YOU KNOW...... a man is 35% more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer than a woman is to be diagnosed with beast cancer???
This was SHOCKING to me..as I have known multiple women with breast cancer at any given time, for many, many years, and I am sure most of you at this moment know multiple women with breast cancer.


DID YOU KNOW
.......One of every SIX men will be diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in their lifetime, and it is growing at an alarming rate??? -CU Cancer Center


DID YOU KNOW.... Prostate Cancer is the second leading Cancer death in men???


My husband was diagnosed at 57, and apparently has had the disease for a long time. He had many of the symptoms, but was not aware that they were symptoms of Prostate Cancer
Since beginning our own cancer journey in December, we have become acquainted with many families with similar stories... and MANY men are losing the battle in their 50's and early 60's, some even younger, because they simply are not AWARE!!

I'd like to introduce you to a wonderful new foundation that we have recently become acquainted with...... PleaseSaveAnother.org





This wonderful foundation raised over $160.000 in 2011, it's first year. This money went to a leading Prostate Cancer research facility and helped many families with the financial challenges of Prostate Cancer.

This foundation was created in memory of a much loved husband, father, son and brother...Bill Meyn. Bill is the handsome guy in the photo below. Click HERE to learn more about this wonderful foundation!! Click HERE to DONATE.
