11 Years And Counting
Just a heads up, this isn't a sports or sports card related post, but it's one I hope you'll stick around and read nonetheless.
Today is an anniversary of sorts for me. 11 years ago today, I was in a hospital having a cancerous growth removed from my right testicle. I officially became a cancer survivor on this date.
I was lucky. I caught it early enough to where I didn't need chemotherapy. Because of this, I encourage others to perform regular self examinations. Since most of my readership is male, that includes you. I'm providing information to help you learn what to check for. Do yourself a favor and read it. Check yourself. It doesn't take long to do, and it could save your life.
Maybe you've skimmed this post, and maybe you've truly read it. Maybe a few of you will consider this but forget, and maybe some of you will actually take the time to check. If I can get just one person to start regularly checking themselves, then I've done my job.
Go for it. Play with yourself. Just wash your hands before you go back to sorting cards! ;)
Congrats on your anniversary! Reminds us how much we have to be thankful for.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 11 years. When I saw the post title I honestly was thinking Blogaversary so I was a little shocked on the subject matter.
