## Resource

A Glasgow taxi driver credits a passenger with saving his life after a chance conversation led him to get a life-saving PSA test. Tam Hewitt, a prostate cancer awareness volunteer, sparked Brian Kelly’s decision to get screened — catching aggressive cancer early and allowing him to undergo treatment and return to work within a week. Their paths crossed again when Brian drove to Tam’s house — this time to personally thank him. Tam, who’d undergone brachytherapy two decades earlier, was moved by Brian’s gratitude. Now Brian pays it forward, urging fellow passengers to get screened. Prostate Cancer UK highlights their story as proof that conversations can save lives — especially for Black men, who face double the risk.
