This has to be one of the best awareness videos out there, full of valuable information with a bit of humour thrown in. I hope it goes viral and millions see it.

[@FoxesAfloat]

That would be nice! Help us share it 😉

[@georgeandison3816]

I have to agree. This is the video the NHS should be showing to make all men aware of this condition. There was a lot I didn't know and have learnt from this 30 minute video.

[@cfladyread3494]

You two are a hoot. No matter the subject you manage to inform, give honest discussion and helpful information. How you are able to make me laugh at a subject as serious as cancer and at the same time share important information that can save a life is why you are so appreciated.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thank you so much x

[@stevebraes1180]

This is Irene, on behalf of Steve. That was possibly one of the most important videos you have ever made. You explained a very serious issue with great detail and welcome humour. Steve works with a guy who arranges golf gigs to raise funds for prostate cancer research. Cool chicks like you raising symptom awareness is pure gold. Male or female, we love our men and want you all to be with us for as long as possible. Love and hugs xx

[@stevebraes1180]

And Steve's golf dude has now forwarded the link to your video onto the charity they support. Steve has received a reply saying 'very informative, and the lads can have a chat amongst themselves without feeling embarrassed'. Thank you so much for this content xxx

What we have here are 2 blokes using their platform to save lives by telling their story. You have my admiration and respect.

[@FoxesAfloat]

That means so much. Thank you! x

[@OscarVaughn]

It's official.. I've been watching you guys for a handful of years now and it's official. I love you guys a bunch. I've literally shown everyone in my family your channel and talked about how amazing you both are. I wish nothing but the best for both of you. I suffer from mental illness and it's always been hard to fit in around people even my own family. You guys help I've learned so much watching you and I thank you so very much for just being you. Thank you.

Aww, mate, thank you!! Keep being you and stay strong 💪🏻 xx

[@kdean9537]

Hi Colin & Shaun, this was a really wonderful talk. As a woman, we need to know these things as well, if we have any males in our lives, so I want to thank you guys for having this open, honest & very informative discussion! My husband has been having a test as part of his annual check-up. My brother has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, he has other comorbidities, so he's not a good candidate for surgery, so he is being what the Doctor calls "Active surveillance", but we just recently were told that his Gleeson score (which was 6) is probably higher, because one of the medications he's on (finasteride) so his true PSA levels is probably doubled! Sorry for going into so much detail, but I want to thank you both so very much for this video to tell people this very, very important information...go and get a PSA test and do it as part of your annual check-ups! Have a really wonderful weekend! You guys are the best! Please give the pups a cuddle for me! Lots of love Kathy x

Kathy, don’t apologise! Thousands of men will read your comment and add to their knowledge of experiences. Thank you! I hope your brother stays okay. x

Thank you for taking the time to explain this in detail. As a wife, this has been the most valuable half an hour I have spent for ages. My husband has been through much of this and I've learnt more from you in this short time than I learnt from the doctors in months. Colin, you're an amazing communicator.

[@FoxesAfloat]

You're very welcome!

[@maggietaylor9475]

I’m SO pleased that you are talking about prostate cancer. My husband was diagnosed with it and had his prostate removed on New Year’s eve in 2019 and his PSA has behaved itself since then! I’m sure that the digital rectal exam and the biopsy are what put men off, but they shouldn’t as it’s better than dying of cancer, to put it bluntly. Well done, guys, love you xx PS the waiting was the worst part!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Glad he’s okay now 👍🏻 I wouldn’t mind the digital exam 🤣

[@paulwalsh9680]

I must admit I was a little embarrassed at the first digital exam, but there are far worse things in the world. It, and biopsies, are short moments of discomfort which could prove life-saving if C caught early enough

[@nanansue]

Wonderful disscussion, my husband's family were the same, so he has regular checkups since he was 50. So far so good, he turns 75 next birthday, and our son is 50 next week and he will celebrate by getting his tests started. Thank you for making it an open subject.

Thank you for sharing your story. I was just diagnosed with breast cancer last week. I completely understand because I knew too what the result would be. There is no breast cancer anywhere in my family, colon rectal cancer is rampant but no breast cancer. I intend to fight it aggressively and used your exact words I just want this out! God bless!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Well said 👍🏻

[@keithsquawk]

Mine had spread just outside the prostate - long term hormone therapy to drop testsoterone levels then radiotherapy. Complications led to a catheter - got so used to strange people tugging my todger at Urology I've lost any sense of shame ;-) Managed to fall asleep during MRI scan, had a lot of laughs with the consultant and her team , wonderful radiotherapy team as well. I've seen various bits of my insides with some of the scans, they love it when you ask about your own bits. I don't really mind about the after effects down there -- no more cancer. (huge thanks to all at U.C.H.)

[@FoxesAfloat]

Exactly! No more cancer is a price worth paying 👍🏻

[@msvaleriah]

Wow Shaun! That was quite a journey to go through. Very glad you've gotten to the other side of it. Thank you both for sharing your experiences with this so frankly - I hope all the guys who viewed this take notice and go get themselves checked. I will be lovingly insistent with my hubby to be doing just that - and am grateful for being informed as well. Shaun, Colin, you two are just awesome, as ever. I'm glad you have each other!

You two are so amazing! I had tears in my eyes several times during the vlog, and now it's hard to see through the tears. My husband was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer back in 2011, and had DaVinci surgery. It was a complete success. But your vlog brought back those memories in a rush of fear. And deep gratitude. This vlog was SO well done, with your usual honesty and humor--and accurate and encouraging information. Just do it, you guys over 50. Be courageous. Be smart. Talk to your doctor. Please.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thank you! I’m so glad your hubby’s op went okay. The worry and unknown is the worst. Sending love! ❤️

[@TheRoybeasley]

This video should be compulsory viewing for men of a certain age. I've watched lots of your "boating" videos and loved pretty much every one of them. Being "late to the party" I had no idea of the back-story behind your decision to buy a boat but loved your straightforward, good-humoured "tell it like it is" approach to life in general and all the "stuff" it throws at you. Gentlemen, I salute you. As you yourselves say, if it saves just one life it will have been worthwhile. I'm hoping you can be directly responsible for saving rather more than just the odd one.

[@johnporter6631]

I wish I'd been able to watch that video five years ago, when I was first diagnosed - like Shaun, after a member of my family told me to get checked. I wasn't suitable for surgery, so had to opt for radiotherapy. Now, several years later, the "late effects" have arrived - the after effects of the therapy can take up to fifteen years to appear. In my case it's left me faecally incontinent - I have to wear a nappy. But, as you said in the video, it's better than being dead! Do they have awards for KZbin videos? That deserves one, certainly!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thank you so much. I hope you’re coping okay with the effects? x

My Father passed of prostate cancer at 77 in 2009. i went for a check up at the dr. on 2016 at the age of 56. Many pees at night and after diagnostics it was prostate cancer. I had the Brackey treatment and on my last PSA test in January I was 0.003. Sexual issues I have but at 63 I don't care much anymore. Just happy to be here and enjoying life.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Exactly! Being alive without sex is better than being dead! Surely there are ways you can at least achieve orgasm? I did a huge amount of research into that for Shaun and had a lot of success after a year or two.

[@careerprofessional]

Fantastically clear and informative video. My father and his brother, and my father's grandfather all died of prostate cancer. My GP said he had never heard of prostate cancer screening, refused me a second opinion, and refused me an appointment with a consultant. However, after my father passed, his consultant offered to ring my GP which seemed to give my GP a case of the heebie-jeebies. I think he smelt a negligence court case coming - ha ha. So now I get my PSA check annually and I have also bought some home PSA kits. Excellent video - keep up the good work.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Very wise! Home testing PSA kits are a good idea to keep peace of mind. x

[@johng4250]

I also had prostate cancer. My choices were chemicals, radiation, or surgery….I chose radiation. That would be 40 sessions of radiation. Killed the cancer but my bowels went to hell. My treatment was in 2017 and my bowels are just now starting to be perky once again. My doctor said I’d probably die of something else while waiting to die from prostate cancer. I’m still kicking after seven years and going on 82. Going on eighty-two scares me worse than cancer. Best of luck to both of you, and I think luck has a lot to do with it.

Your surgery sounds somewhat similar to my husband's experience with his surgery last year (age 68) for a badly enlarged prostate.(Five times normal size)The biopsy after his surgery found a very small spot of cancer in the piece they removed, although it didn't worry anybody since the cancer was completely removed. After his surgery, he has noticed many improvements in the things that the enlarged prostate had caused, so it's been a huge win for him. I'm glad you found your cancer early, Shaun. May you have many more good years ahead!

You had us worried initially, we thought it was a new diagnosis. Sorry you had to go through that, but thank you so much for a very informative vlog. I know for a fact that many men don't even think about it checked, including my husband, whom I had to threaten to get checked. This is one of the few cancers that is treatable and curable if caught early. I've taken care of quiet a few gentlemen who've had their prostate removed. I'm a nurse, and when I still worked in a hospital over 20yrs ago, they kept you in the hospital for at least 1 week, if not 2.

Ouch......I've had the "pleasure" of walking around wearing a tube at least 4 times, post surgery, but it seem far easier for a woman. You have my sympathy. xx

[@FoxesAfloat]

There must be an easier way than those tubes! x

[@spalmer4609]

A heartwarming and honest video, just as I'd think would come from you two. Thanks for this and I hope it inspires others to be tested.

[@FoxesAfloat]

I hope so too!

I am currently in Hospital having had a very minor heart problem last weekend, i have sat watching this with two nurses who say well done on good advice, and thanks for the laughter, you know by now i think you guys are brilliant, Thanks for this and have a good week, and don't worry about me being supported by my local RNA branch.

When Colin said, referring to the doctor's abnoramlly long fingers, "I don't know why 'cause you never do that with me" I almost fell off the chair laughing!

[@FoxesAfloat]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@craigkibbe1506]

Hi Guys, I'm now 66 and I understand what you mean. I am lucky and have not experienced the cancer, but I have experienced the prostate swelling and am on medication for that. Still, it is good to hear of your experience and dealing with it. Age isn't for the weak! Thanks!

[@FoxesAfloat]

I hate aging! 🤣👍🏻

[@evelynsutton4411]

Dear Foxes, Once again, an exemplary "public information" presentation of an important subject. Can l add one thing - my late partner, when in his mid 60's, presented with 'symptoms' of prostate trouble and underwent all the tests. He was put on various medications, and for two years struggled on with no improvement. ln the end they decided to do a laparoscopy test but could not get the scope into the urethra because he had polyps growing up the walls of it. They operated to remove them and his symptons disappeared. So he was on inneccessary medication and suffering for two yesrs. lt might be a good thing if the medical profession tried looking for other explanations when the tests for prostate come back unclear. Keep up the good work Colin and Shaun, you are an asset to life in many ways!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Wow! I hope a lot of people read this. Sorry he had to go through that.

[@heating4343]

Guys i love you i love watching your video's thankyou so much for covering this .i have had a health scare a few weeks ago i collapsed and stopped breathing luckily my brother was close and safed my life with chest compressions before the ambulance got to me 40 mins later .apparently it was because i had blood clots on my lungs caused by covid i had 2 weeks before .i am still at home recovering slowly but getting there .love you guys big hugs from the keelings family ❤

[@FoxesAfloat]

Wow! Scary! Get well soon mate x

[@stefaniedecoster2772]

Thanks for making this video chaps! My dad (now 77 and doing well) had prostate cancer and only found out about it because his friends were talking about how it's clever to go for a health MOT when you're getting older. So he went, had some standard tests done and his PSA level was too high. He had no symptoms. He had surgery to remove his prostate and had to deal with urinary incontinence for a few months, which was very bad at first but got better as the weeks went on. He has regular PSA tests and as the level started to creep up again he's started on the lowest dose of hormones. He has grown moobs now but his PSA number is nice and low and he's still here and that's a good thing since he decided in his childhood that he wants to live to be 103!

[@FoxesAfloat]

103. Wow! Great for him. No good if you want your inheritance! 🤣👍🏻

[@stefaniedecoster2772]

@@FoxesAfloat LOL I'll be 76 when he's 103!!!

[@edsageseamaster3440]

Thank you for sharing this. Prostate awareness is so important for men. Thanks so much gents. X

[@FoxesAfloat]

Absolutely!

[@rrich52806]

I just beat colon cancer. Removed and final chemo is done. In the USA we do colonoscopy every 5 years.

[@maggietaylor9475]

[@FoxesAfloat]

Sorry you lost your dad to it. X

[@brenreidy8763]

Spent a couple years away from the channel (by complete accident) and am elated to have found my way back (although I wish under better circumstances). Missed having you guys as part of my daily routine. I miss the water, too, but I'm glad to see you've settled.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Cheers! Welcome back 🙏🏻

[@stephaniewilley2224]

So very happy for you and I hope you live to a very ripe old age. My dear friend died this year of metastatic prostate cancer. He was like a little brother to me. And by the way, you two make me laugh every episode I watch. You're NUTS !! in the best possible ways.

[@FoxesAfloat]

So sorry you lost a friend 😢 x

[@martinsherman6681]

So sorry to hear that this has happened. I am waiting for my test and hoping that all will be well Shaun thank you for sharing your experience you are right we have to talk about this disease so again huge thanks.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Good luck with your test 👍🏻

[@HipsyJ]

Bravo to you both for taking the time to share a harrowing part of your lives with such candour and humour, with seriousness as needed. It just goes to show why kindness and compassion is so important, as you never know what people have going on or have been through. ‘Hopefully you’re able to continue to move on from the trauma. Keep smiling (Shaun keep laughing, love it!). Take care x

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thanks so much! x

[@HipsyJ]

@@FoxesAfloat no need to thank me, but appreciate it nonetheless. I am sure that your vlog will reach the person that needs to hear it. Good work. 😍

[@lindahouston5635]

It's good that you are calling attention to a problem that people can benefit from knowing about! Thank you!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thanks Linda 👍🏻

[@michaelajones3293]

Thank you for a brilliant video. This needs to be shown on the tv, so MORE people can see this. Well done to you both, there are a load of serious topics and then are some funny parts. Thank you again Shaun for sharing your story
