Dear followers
Recently I was contacted by a beautiful lady graciously wanting to request our 5th care package hamper for her husband who has Prostate Cancer. So sadly, when she shared her idea to pick it up for him, he declined. Saying it's lovely but to give it to another man. This breaks my heart.
TO HUSBANDS:- please..... please don't be too humble. Your wives can feel very helpless during your Prostate Cancer battle, and wives requesting to accept one is her way of gesturing to you she wants to show you through actions how much she wishes she could help you. She cares. We care. You need not feel another gent is more deserving, as you are equally important as the next man. This is Prostembers purpose as a charity, and we couldn't exist without men saying Yes or loved ones saying Yes for him. We are here for a reason, to be utilised. If not opening your arms for yourself, open your hands for your loved one and their beautiful intension. There is absolutely no shame to becoming a recipient, in fact we can appreciate how brave you must be to be willing to take a hand up--it's not a hand out. Your Prostate Cancer struggles takes a lot of courage to try to defeat, and we simply come together with compassion to make your journey through therapies a little lighter to land. It's so okay to be given a small peice of kindness, you do not have to go it alone!
