Widow is raising awareness of the penile cancer which killed her husband

This fine woman is spreading the word about the horrors her poor husband went through when diagnosed with penile cancer. It's true about the lack of support for male cancers here in the UK. A woman gets a pimple on her breast and she's almost mobbed by agencies wanting to support her etc., etc. A man gets penile cancer and he's virtually told 'Oh, it'll have to be chopped off, but here's a leaflet to explain it all...' Excerpt:

'To mark male cancer awareness month Health Wales and Tenovus have joined forces to encourage men to be aware of the signs and symptoms of cancer. In the first of four articles, Health Editor Madeleine Brindley spoke to Wendy Gane about her husband's dying wish to spread the word about penile cancer

MIKE GANE was a private man but he was adamant he wanted his wife of 15 years Wendy to raise awareness of the disease that killed him.

Six months after his death, Wendy is doing just that – she wants men and the medical profession to know about penile cancer and she wants better services for the small numbers of men who are diagnosed with the disease every year.

“He said you have to do this because of the other men who could suffer after him,” the 52-year-old said.'
