Hey, Mastodonites,

I've been silent for awhile.

I've been planning #americancancersociety fundraisers.

#RealMenWearPink is coming up in October.

AND!!

Starting in April (or in March, if the weather cooperates), I'm going to ride 400 miles on the Katy Trail to raise money to support the American Cancer Society of Missouri's mission.

Last week we raised over L$8,000 for #AmericanCancerSociety's #RelayForLife, but tonight I truly believe we can do better than that! Don't forget to bring your skates if you've got some, and if you don't, there's a free pair you can slap onto the bottom of your shoes made by Fauna's favorite boob, the one and only Baiku

#Cancerscreening is an important life saving treatment tool but it is not infallible.

Percent of [All #Cancer, All Ages] Detected by #Screening
National Rate: 14.1%

"Our analysis found that, at present, only 14% of diagnosed cancers [are] detected by screening with a recommended screening test. Improved cancer screening has the potential to detect cancers earlier when treatment is more likely to improve outcomes and save lives."

#throwback photo, from a recent visit to #Hawaii #News Now studios. Remember these guys? If you do, then you should consider a colonoscopy. The #americancancersociety recommends colorectal cancer screening for everyone beginning at age 45. If you put it off because of COVID, do yourself a favor and get it scheduled. Do it so you can tell your grandkids about this absurd TV classic and how it ruled! See https://www.cancer.org/cancer/colon-rectal-cancer/detection-diagnosis-staging/acs-recommendations.html
