‘Living Well, Your Way’ on male breast cancer awareness day
20 Oct 2023
Thankfully BCNA’s network includes many men who have been generous in sharing their stories to help raise awareness of breast cancer in males.
One of these men is Paul. After an initial early breast cancer diagnosis in 2018, Paul was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer a few years later.
“I often get a surprised reaction when I tell people I have breast cancer. For me, I just have cancer. If you solely use the word ‘women’ to describe breast cancer, you’re mostly correct. But you’re still incorrect.”
Paul has just returned from a holiday with his young family and is determined to keep passion at the centre of his life.
“I’d like other men to be comfortable to share their diagnosis and seek out any support they need.”
You can read more about Paul’s story in our latest edition of The Beacon.
