Hello everybody,

the game is afoot! Thanks for the help I received fine-tuning the technicalities and also for the first donations! And here is the video.

By the way: whatever the button says when you are on the English donation page: I do not collect any money personally. Every donation goes ‘dreckly to the Movember foundation Just saying, because the German button says “Donation for Jörg”. That is a little ambigous.

“And how did you know?”

Almost everyone has asked me just that when I’ve told them I’ve been diagnosed with prostate cancer.

“I Didn’t.”

“?”

“You don’t notice it, or you don’t notice it until it’s advanced.”

“OK, so how did you know then?”

“PSA level had gone up.”

“The what level?”

I could continue the dialogue for quite some time. But just so you don’t have to read on for so long here are the two key messages:

Number one, of course, goes only to men and is, “Get your PSA level checked regularly.”

The second (but you don’t have to be a man for this): I’m asking you, now, in November 2023, to make a small donation to the Movember Foundation, which works worldwide to raise funds for testicular and prostate cancer research and cure and distribute them to national research institutions.

You can donate by scanning the QR code in the pictute at the top or by clicking here: https://movember.com/m/14780321?mc=1

OK, so if you do want to read on, I’ll tell you a bit more about my motivations and back story.
