Summary
A Glasgow taxi driver credits a chance conversation with a passenger for saving his life—after being asked about a PSA test, he got checked, discovered stage two prostate cancer, and is now cancer-free thanks to early detection. The passenger, a 76-year-old prostate cancer survivor himself, regularly shares his story to encourage men over 50 to get screened. This simple chat underscores how awareness and peer support can turn a routine question into a life-saving moment. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
