Last year the 1st Resolution supporting Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in September. It was signed John R. Kasich, Governor of Ohio. In 2009 my husband was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer it was devastating to say the least. But when September rolls around saying prostate cancer it is so Taboo! Doing a search in the Governor's Media Room online there was not Resolution for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. So I contacted Governor Kasich's Office to find out what needed to be done. They needed the proper text for the Resolution, I got it and sent it in. It was already late in September of 2013 but was told that it would be done September 2014.
After receiving the Resolution for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, I did not stop there. It was time to get the Mayors and Council Members involved it raising awareness as well. Currently there are 133 Cities and Villages in Ohio supporting my efforts in Ohio. Now I am contacted by others on how I have been so successful.
