Movember 30th + 1

At last! After a long month of enduring quizzical glances, sceptical standardized patients, and amused upper-years poking fun, Movember is now over!

My apologies to those who said they liked the ’stache: your opinion has been vetoed… by me. The mo’ is gone! Gone, gone, gone. 

I’m delighted to report that Movember was a huge success!! Our class raised a grand total of more than $5800, which is nearly double our predecessors’ success from last year.

Special thanks from me goes to Lukas, who made a completely unexpected but massive donation in the last throes of the competition!! Thanks Lukas! Also, thank you so much to EVERYONE who donated and contributed towards this month! Your money is going to a great cause, and you got to completely embarrass a friend out of the deal, so I’m sure that it was well worth it!

The whole point of Movember was to learn something about men’s health and, specifically, prostate disease. In case you missed them, here’s what we were talking about:

• Do You Know Where Your Prostate Is At?
• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
• Prostate Cancer

Here’s the final entry to the Photo Diary,
