A Proclamation by the President of the United States of America:
National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, 2008
|
CRAWFORD, Texas, Aug 25, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) –
National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month is an opportunity to underscore
our commitment to fighting prostate cancer and to raise awareness about
this highly treatable disease.
|
Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer found in men,
and one in six men will develop it during their lifetime. The cause of
prostate cancer remains unknown, but early detection can lead to better
treatment and increase the chances of survival. It is important for men
to talk to their physicians about risk factors, prevention, and
preventive screenings.
|
During National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, we remember those who
lost the battle against prostate cancer, and we pray for their families
and friends. |
By continuing our fight
against this disease, we will make our Nation a healthier and more
hopeful place.
