Raising Awareness
Led by former teacher, Bob Arthy, a group calling itself Friends of the Prostate has been distributing information in the streets and pubs of Chorleywood to raise awareness of prostate cancer its symptoms and what men can do about them.
Bob, 68, was diagnosed with the disease last year. Like many men he put off going to the doctor for months, passing off the disease’s uncomfortable symptoms as merely a consequence of his advancing years. This mistake, he says, almost cost him his life.
Residents have enjoyed Bob’s composition:
Doctor, doctor don’t delay,
In giving me a PSA.
Oh doctor, doctor don’t delay.
I need a PSA
Today.
