Movember 2009

[Cro]

It's Movember time of year again, and it is supporting a cause very close to most of the people here being a majority male member base.

I am doing this to help raise awareness and funds for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and depression in men. What many people do not realise is that close to 3,000 men die of prostate cancer each year in Australia and one in eight men will experience depression in their lifetime, many of whom don't seek help.

No doubt all the male members here will at some stage in their life have to get their prostate checked, and lets hope that none of us end up with cancer. Better to support the cause by raising funds and awareness so a vaccine or other treatment method can be realised before it is your time. Most of us have also been subjected to depression, whether it was when we were beaten by a Expensive Daewoo or a bit more serious than that.
