- was just watching HLN this morning -nov 16- - a group of sports athletes are participating in Movember - good to see coverage BUT - PROSTATE CANCER AWARENESS was never mentioned !!!
-in the ticker line at the bottom of the tv - it just said "health issues" - and the first time the segment was aired it just said "men's health" and the second time it had used "cancer" - but sports reporter, Carlos Diaz even stumbled over the word "cancer" !! -
-I had written to weatherman Bob VanDillon and he responded - he supports us but was not allowed to participate....
-for those on Twitter - consider writing to @robinemeade @carlosdiaz to encourage them to use the word PROSTATE - if they can say breast cancer - they should be able to say prostate cancer....
-my local councilman is growing a Mo' for Movember and was very pleased when I gave him a PCCN PCa pin -
-thanks for letting me vent.
hugs,
Bronson
