PROSTATE CANCER IS A POTENTIAL KILLER<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Are you around 50 years of age-ish ?<\/p>\n

Do you know anybody who is? (father, family or friend)<\/p>\n

Have they ever had a PSA Test and Digital Rectal Examination to identify if they may have prostate cancer?<\/p>\n

If not tell them to go to their GP and ask to be tested.<\/p>\n

It is treatable if identified in time. It can be deadly if not identified.<\/p>\n

Did you know that you are approximately twice as likely to get prostate cancer if your father had it before you?<\/p>\n

Please pass this on to ALL the men you know in this age group, and younger for future reference. Yes, even you Ladies who have fathers, brothers , friends etc. and employers with staff.<\/p>\n

I had it and was able to be treated \u2013 Over to you !<\/p>\n
