Did you know that globally we lose one man to suicide every minute of every hour of every day? Or that testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15-34? That's why this year and every year, we support #Movember - for our dads, grandads, partners, brothers, sons, friends and colleagues. It is so much more than growing moustaches, and anyone can be involved. It’s about supporting the men in our lives we care about to lead healthier, longer lives.

That's why I represent this Mutual of Omaha, where our Critical Advantage portfolio offers you the opportunity to protect the ones you love when the unexpected happens.

Yesterday was the 10th National Cancer Awareness Day, which aims to raise awareness about cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment. As a ten plus year cancer survivor, my husband always carries a "miracle stone," not only as a reminder, but to give to others who have cancer or other health challenges. Engraved with "Believe in Miracles," it embodies his energy that he passes on to others, and while placing it in the palm of their hand, he says "we don't quit." #Cancersurvivor #Longtermcare #Legacyplanning
