SPECIAL NOTE: “ I can’t give up on him.” Mum’s brave fight for ice-ravaged son. How does anyone do this? Please be helpful of anyone in this
kind of situation. See news item: bit.ly/2qeKu77  

Be vigilant in keeping check on the prostate situation.

“I had a few days in hospital recently for some prostate corrections and it was so helpful to share a room with another man in a similar situation.”  (Ed.)

Organise checks-ups for skin cancers with GP and skin specialist. Not forgetting the importance of Blood Pressure checks and Bowel Cancer checks. One person is capable of being a force for good in any community. See RUOK? :  www.ruok.org.au
Please DO NOT ignore any lump or unusual skin condition. A lot of items in the newsletter are result of my life experiences.

Support each other as you are able to understand.

Thank you for your interest and best regards.
