You know, it's the second leading cause of cancer death among men, right behind lung cancer. It's a big issue, and it's an issue not only for men, one in eight men are gonna get diagnosed in their lifetime. It's an issue for Black men, okay? Oh, for sure. One in six. That's a big amount, and it's something I've personally went through. My father had prostate cancer about 14 years ago. Had it taken care of, we thought. It actually came back again. Just went through radiation last year, last few months. Happy to say he rang that bell two months ago. You know what I'm saying?
I love that. So, you know, not to say that it took something personal- Yeah to pay attention to the issue, but it rings a certain type of way. You know, it resonates a certain type of way with your soul when it's someone as close to you as your father. Yeah. So to be able to come out here and to try to raise awareness, obviously raise funds- Yeah for this issue, I couldn't think of a better reason to do this.
