Paul McCaffrey learned he had testicular cancer in 2015. He'd been experiencing groin pain at the time, but he didn't know how to check himself for any other signs of testicular cancer. So, Paul used the Cahonas Scotland's self-check guide and found a lump in one of his testicles. In the podcast, this testicular cancer survivor shares his treatment story for cancer, as well as sepsis and avian flu.
Now, he works with Cahonas Scotland as the Community Engagement Officer, where he visits schools, workplaces, and communities throughout the country to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of testicular cancer. He and his wife are the parents of two children: a son who plays the bagpipes and a daughter who is a Highland dancer.
