Following a colleague’s diagnosis of Prostate Cancer earlier this year, the gents at Oakray wanted to challenge themselves by participating in Movember 2022.
Below are the details of Anthony’s personal journey inspiring his colleagues to successfully support and raise a fantastic £450.00 for this cause.
Everything went well the Cancer and Prostate all removed successfully with NO need for radiology or Chemo Treatment. The recovery is a little more involved than I was expecting, with the Catheter, Self-Injecting of the Blood Thinners, the removal of the Staples, Pelvic and Stomach Exercises the walking to make sure NO post Op Blood Clots and the General body feeling pulled and bruised also very tender. But in saying all that I am truly Grateful for having this done and the fact it was caught so early as I and am now on the right side of good.
I have my important 6-week post Op check with the Consultant on the 16th, where they go over all the work they have done and check everything. I have stuck to the letter in everything they have asked of me so I am confident I will get the all clear on the 16th October.
Having a strong mindset really helps in getting up to carry out the exercises, when you feeling tender or just hurting from the internal pain. A good mindset helps you drive to get on and be able to achieve the goals to recovery and knowing you can get through it whatever comes your way.
Having the Wonderful support of Work, Oakray have been a BIG part of this recovery allowing me the time to take when needed and for me knowing you are all there behind me in my support to get well, and for that I thank you all.
