Pat - Growing a stache to save the boys

Hi Fam!

During Movember (the month formerly known as November), I’m concentrating what little testosterone my mostly-hairless body can muster into the cultivation of one bad moustache. Of course I’m not just doing it to be stylish – I’m doing it to raise money for the fight against prostate cancer. And I need your support!

To donate to my Mo you can either:

Click this link https://mail.interpublic.com/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=https://www.movember.com/ca/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink%26rego=1499026%26country=ca and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account, or

Write a cheque payable to the ‘Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada', referencing my Registration Number 1499026 and mailing it to:
Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of CanadaAttn: Movember145 Front Street EastSuite 306Toronto Ontario M5A 1E3

Donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada who will use the funds to create awareness and fund research across the country into prevention, detection and treatment, with a goal to ending the threat of prostate cancer.

Did you know:

Every year around 24,700 Canadian men are diagnosed with prostate cancer and about 4,300 die of the disease, making it the number one cancer threat to Canadian men.
1 in 7 men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime.

All men over the age of 40 are potentially at risk and should talk to their doctor about the disease and early detection (that's you bro - the Dr's finger is your friend). Prostate cancer is 95% curable if detected and treated early.

Thanks for your support,

Patstachio.

Bochsler Family Update

Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Mark Simmonds is home!

I just called Fenwick to see how Mark was and i was surprised to see he came home today (Tuesday). Mark had a Angioplasty. He is very tired and happy to be home.
