Do it for your Family

By Glenn Thornton

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

My Father was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and asked me to get tested, and for 8 years I was having PSA test and occasional biopsy, with little to no change around 4.5 , then my reading started to climb with every test then it quickly  reached 16, and my surgeon said it was time to remove my prostate. My twin brother had been having occasional tests but his readings were quite low, but his reading after mine had risen to 5.3, so 4 weeks later he also had his removed. All the males in my fathers family have tested positive for prostate cancer. we have recently Lost several close friends  to cancer, and the more research that can be done to find a cure the better off we will all be .
