Description
Welcome to episode 14 of The Penis Project Podcast.
Today, we speak with Glenn.
Glenn was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer at the age of 32. That was three years ago. And fortunately, according to him, his life is now back to normal.
Glenn talks about his experience from the time symptoms appeared to that time when he decided to have his check-up (6 months after experiencing signs and symptoms), to eventually going through the operation, and to changing his perspective on life after everything that happened.
Glenn’s advice to anyone experiencing some symptoms?
‘There’s nothing to be ashamed of, go see the doctor’. ;)
