76-year-old radio host, Roger Cartwright, who bravely shared his penile cancer diagnosis publicly, has received a touching letter from His Majesty the King.
A man, who bravely shared his penile cancer diagnosis publicly, has received a touching letter from His Majesty the King.
But in the hopes of stripping the stigma around penile cancer, he shared his story publicly with a local newspaper - and King Charles III has penned Roger a letter of support. Roger reflected on how 'humbling' the response to his article about his diagnosis was, spurring him on to thank the Royals when they also went public
Roger joked that he might have been 'called up to fight Putin' - before opening the letter and revealing a touching letter, wishing him well and thanking him for his work. The King told Roger in the letter that he was 'touched' to hear he had been spreading awareness about the disease 'I was touched that the King would share his problems with the world - because it wouldn't have happened when I was young.
'Penile cancer is quite rare, and it's not the kind of thing that you discuss at a dinner party - although nowadays I do,' he said. 'I said that would be all right, I'll be back in three months, and we can operate then. He told me, 'no, you'll be back in in three days' - which is what happened.The doctor then suggested Roger take part in a vaccine trial in a bid to find another way to effectively fight the disease.
