My motivation

The Movember Foundation is the leading charity changing the face of men's health, and this Movember I'm joining them. Together we can make a difference for men's health – in prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. Help me stop men dying too young.

in 2020 the Movember campaign and our role of breaking stigmas led to the discovery of my brother's cancer. It was papillary thyroid carcinoma with cervical metastasis, meaning a survivable cancer that was spreading into his lymphatic system. Not exactly the health issues targeted by the Movember campaign, but I used the initiative to convince him to go for his Movember checkup, his doctor decided to do bloodwork, that's how the cancer was detected. Had this gone unchecked, it could have spread to his liver, lungs and bones, which would be deadly serious.

Here we are in 2022, two surgeries, radio therapy, chemo therapy, and another tumor has been detected. Never underestimate cancer, and never underestimate the importance of regular screening and checkups!
