In early 2010, a good friend and brother of ours, Sean, was diagnosed with testicular cancer. He has since gone through chemotherapy and his cancer is thankfully in remission. It took Sean over one month from the time he first noticed symptoms of his cancer till he decided to see a doctor. Testicular cancer does not receive as much awareness as it should.

Throughout Sean’s journey we noticed a major problem; most men don’t expect to have cancer at such a young age, so they are not self checking or looking for the symptoms.
