Patrick Cox, of Great Britain, better known as
the eccentric "Mr. Testicles," is the founder of the Male Cancer
Awareness Campaign. Cox, 32, is determined to raise £50,000 for his campaign, and is doing so by showing up
in his attention-getting costume at marathons and train stations for prostate, bowel and testicular cancer awareness. A
familiar sight to many in Great Britain, he spends more than 100 hours a week seeking donations from the public, in very
public places. The mission of the Male Cancer Awareness Campaign is to educate men on the importance of self awareness,
that embarrassment kills, and early detection saves lives. And who wouldn't donate to someone who is willing to go to
this level of silliness to raise awareness for a serious cause?Note: The contents of this blog are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as medical advice or substitute for professional care. For medical emergencies, dial 911!
