Men’s Health Week.

I’m taking strides for my dad and others undergoing treatment for Prostate Cancer.

My sister and I are taking strides to save men’s lives and improve our Dad’s life. 

Prostate cancer is Australia’s most commonly diagnosed cancer. 1 in 5 men are likely to be diagnosed by 85. Unfortunately for our Dad he was one of those 1 in 5. 

That’s why, this Men’s Health Week, we are making every step count and walking for our dad and all men battling this disease. 


Back in September 2014 it was confirmed that our father had prostate cancer, luckily they got it early and by November 2014 he had his prostate removed and he was all clear for two years until his PSA started going up. A PSMA pet scan confirmed that the cancer had spread to his chest where 5 nodules were found. Dad started hormone replacement therapy. After some further testing they found more lesions on Dad's spine and pelvis. These were hit with cyber knife and chemo. Early 2023  his PSA raised again and a pet scan and biopsy showed the cancer had spread to his right adrenal gland but the all other lesions had disappeared. Adrenal gland was removed October 2023. Early 2024 PSA was on the rise again and scan showed 6 new lesions in his spine, pelvis and right shoulder blade. Dad is now currently undergoing another round of chemo. 


Dad has never given up and continues to fight hard. We are so proud of him. So help us help every family battling this disease.
