Check Yourself

Never really spoke on this, but for a period of time last school year and this summer I was pretty worried I had testicular cancer. Fortuantely, I was in fact buggin, I got tested and its all good. Regardless, this gave me a compassionate heart for those that do have cancer and really educated me on the subject. Testicular cancer is becoming more common and is a legitimate problem for young men my age. With a 95% survival rate and amazing comeback stories (see Lance Armstrong, Nene Hillario, Chris Lofton...) it is definately treatable if detected. Anyways God Bless those that do have it and check your self monthly and see a doctor if you're concerned. Believe me the awkwardness of getting checked pales in comparison to the fear and uncertainty of not.
