MOVEMBER!!!!! Check it!

Some of you may or may not know me, some may or may not know me well, some of you may not even know what I look like, but if you do know me and what I look like, then you know I have a beard and I love it! I have had a full beard for almost 4 years without shaving or even trimming close. I wear my beard with pride, just as my Father has, just as most of my Irish ancestors have. But this month it is gone! Not only have I removed the beard, but I have chosen to wear a facial hair style that is rather odd for men my age, or generation for that matter.....The mustache! Why you ask.....well it started when a friend introduced me to Movember. Movember organization is a yearly event set to raise funds for men’s heath, i.e. prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Movember is teamed with the prostate cancer foundation and the livestronge foundation. I became a registered member and I have made a pledge to sport my mustache the entire month of Movember in hopes that people I encounter will make a donation to my cause! Here is my mospace, check it out! http://us.movember.com/mospace/1073384/

This year my step father, who I am rather close too was diagnosed with prostate cancer, which his father passed away from. He had his prostate removed and it is looking like he is cancer free again. Also, 8 years ago my wife's father found out he had prostate cancer and it had progressed almost to the point of no solution. Luckily he was diagnosed cancer free again after his prostate removal, which gave me the opportunity to ask him for his daughter's hand in marriage and gave her the opportunity to walk down the aisle with him at our wedding. We currently have a friend of the family who is battling prostate cancer and have had other members of our family battle it as well. This is a serious issue and any help in research and awareness is greatly appreciated.

My real name is William Pearson, and you can donate in honor of my commitment to the stache and the cause at my mospace: http://us.movember.com/mospace/1073384/
