Deion Sanders Sends Emotional Warning To All Men, 'Please'

Deion Sanders sent an emotional warning to all men on Monday afternoon.

“Please…” Coach Prime said when speaking to reporters at his press conference on Monday afternoon. “Get yourself checked out.”

Sanders, 57, announced on Monday that he had been diagnosed with bladder cancer. Thankfully, his doctors caught it in time. Sanders’ doctors announced on Monday that he’s officially cancer-free. 

“He never folded one time and never wavered,” Colorado team trainer Lauren Askevold said at the press conference on Monday afternoon. “You couldn’t ask for a better patient because he wants to get up and get going right. So it’s been awesome. It’s been a hectic journey, but there’s a blessing very in disguise with all this.”

Coach Prime admitted that things were difficult for a while. He lost close to 30 pounds.

Thankfully, he made it through.

“It was dynamic. It was tough. It wasn’t a cakewalk. It wasn’t easy,” Sanders said. “That was a fight, but we made it.”

While it was an individual journey for Coach Prime, he made sure to let everyone know that they are not alone. Sanders wants all men to get checked. Regular doctor’s appointments are important. While they might be stressful or anxiety-inducing, it’s better than waiting until it’s too late.

“Please get yourself checked out… because it could have been a whole other gathering if I hadn’t,” Coach Prime admitted while speaking to reporters.

Bladder cancer is common among men

In the United States, one out of every 28 men will be diagnosed with bladder cancer at some point in their lives, while one out of every 91 women will develop it.

If caught early enough, it can be curable or at least treatable. Most people who get it are over the age of 55 years old, when it becomes highly important to get regular doctor’s checkups and work-throughs.

Our thoughts continue to be with everyone out there who is dealing with cancer. Let Coach Prime’s announcement on Monday be a motivation for everyone.
