Prostate Cancer & Father’s Day

Posted on Wednesday, June 16th, 2010 at 9:28 am

As we approach Father’s Day, we should remind all the special men in our lives that regular screenings really can make a difference.  My father is a prostate cancer survivor thanks to early detection, so I am proud to participate in an awareness event tomorrow.  I will be bagging groceries at the Easton Safeway and the Easton Food Lion to help get the word out and to help people get the conversation started.  Senator Richard Colburn will also be joining me.  Hope to see you there but even more, I hope you will take time to talk to your loved ones!
