48-year-old Troy O'Brien, diagnosed with prostate cancer, advocates for awareness and improved screening via blood tests after surgery.

Troy O'Brien, 48, was diagnosed with prostate cancer in early 2023, influenced by family history of cancer. Urged by his partner, he sought a check-up, leading to surgery for high-severity cancer. Post-operative recovery has been tough, yet O'Brien advocates for prostate cancer awareness, emphasizing that screenings have evolved from rectal exams to blood tests. Urologist Dr. Gordon O'Neill supports this message, noting minimally invasive treatment options are available for men.
