I'm sure you did more than okay. I'm sure you were brilliant! I'm in awe of your incredible advocacy Tony. You've always been a powerful and consistent voice for prostate cancer awareness and support 😊👏
I am constantly bouncing from imminent death to endless life (mostly metaphorically, but sometimes literally) and the push and pull of it is exhausting.

Powerful message from Dr Anne-Marie Baird (TCD, ILCC) at #ESMO25 on gender bias in cancer care:

🔧 Redesign – integrate sex & gender in every step
📊 Report – transparency in data, trials & diagnostics

The Irish Cancer Society has said there is a complacent notion that Ireland is doing well in terms of cancer treatment.
September is #OvarianCancer Awareness Month, a time to spotlight a disease that remains one of the deadliest gynecologic cancers. In 2025, > 20,000 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with OVCA, and roughly 60% of those diagnosed will die from it!
