One In Three My Prostate Cancer Journey — Health & Fitness
One In Three My Prostate Cancer Journey

Picture this: it’s the day after your 50th birthday. You’re on a high from celebrating with friends and family at the weekend, but you’re now sat in a doctors office being told you’ve got an old man’s disease.

That was me and the ‘old mans disease’ is better known as prostate cancer, the third biggest killer of men worldwide. It isn’t even remotely restricted to old men.

So here I am talking about my adventures with humour and candour – I honestly couldn’t make some of it up. I am not a doctor, I am just here to educate men.
Dragging them kicking, screaming, denying and bitching one heavy step at a time.

After hearing about DeeDee father and his stage 4 prognosis, in the last episode I decided to ask him if he was up for an interview.
This is the result.

Ep 19 | Mobiles Ringing But Sorry Mate It's Not Mrs World Oct 22, 2023

Show notes

Back on the talking tour I come up against my first dreaded foe the mobile phone or more accurately the inconsiderate owners. Miss World was the last person I could have thought I would meet on the talk circuit - but hey this is me you are talking about.
Just with anything in life, as much as you think it's bad for you there is always someone who unfortunately is worse off than you.
Just another day.

Ep 18 | Sing Me A Song Mr Alien Oct 15, 2023

Show notes

My second talk was in a senior citizens social club. It seemed innocent from the description but when I am involved that's not always the case. I would get a thank you that would wrench at the heart strings and I would also be given a shock preview into the world of fame without fortune.

Ep 17 | Forcefields Oct 10, 2023

Show notes

My second public talk but with very few of the target audience in attendance. Here I would learn the power of educating the young and women and never look back.
On another floor at the same event, I got my first great introduction to the effect information on prostate cancer is viewed by some men at an annual prestigious black business event. Some men just cannot get away quick enough....

Ep 16 | Who Let The Volunteers Out Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

This was my first official speaking engagement for Prostate Cancer UK, I was to be David's 'sidekick'. Despite hostile locals on the way there we delivered a great session to a packed doctors surgery.
I would also come across the first of many falsehoods that people would propagate on social media. This was the most disturbing however.
Finally the locals were onto us. Would they allow us to leave peacefully and in one piece?

Ep 15 | Talk Until You Drop Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

Fresh from my first talk I had to go back to work and I would also talk again to my church. Only 800 or more in the audience and a couple of thousand watching the live stream from their homes. no pressure then.
In the meantime I also had to deal with my first case of a doctor lying to a patient about getting a PSA test done - this was to be the best and most outrageous lie ever.
Not on my watch matey!

Ep 14 | Pump and Talk Aug 18, 2023

Show notes

"If you don't use it you will lose it"
These were the words of encouragement told to men about using a pump, that essential but sole defying piece of equipment that men have to use after the operation.
Getting one is almost an adventure in itself. Using it is another story.
Hey ho, prostate cancer, the gift that just keeps on giving.

Ep 13 | Anoraks and Napkins Jul 31, 2023

Show notes

Saying and owning the big I word was the first hurdle. I was impotent but adamant that this was only a temporary situation. I just had no idea how long this was going to take.
So along with 10 or so other men and couples we filed into the 'Post Prostatectomy' seminar where we find out what options are available to help us at this point.
