My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Gezondheid Van De Man
Teelbalkanker
Mentale gezondheid en preventie van zelfmoord

In 2020, I've fought an intense battle with testicular cancer. With a lot of great help from doctors, nurses and the love and support from my loved ones, friends and family I was lucky enough to beat it.

If my diagnose would have been a few weeks later, though, I might not have been able to tell this story... On the other hand, if my diagnose would have been a couple of months earlier - when the first symptoms started to appear - the impact of the treatment would have been a lot smaller.

Two years later I was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which was a whole other struggle. Even so, the same rule applies for mental health: the sooner the diagnosis, the better!

With my Movember campaign, I hope to raise awareness on the subject and motivate men to take their health into their own hands, while having some fun in the process!

Every case that is diagnosed sooner, rather than later, can prevent so much suffering that it's easily worth the trouble. So if you can help me spread the word, that'd be great!

Hey Joni, het spijt me te lezen wat je allemaal hebt doorgemaakt en nog steeds doormaakt. Mijn vader stierf aan zelfdoding ten gevolge van zijn bipolariteit toen ik negen was. Het onderwerp ligt me dus nauw aan het hart. Mooi dat je iets doet om mensen hiermee te helpen. Warme groet, Youri

On the final day of Movember I don’t want to focus on all the nasty stuff that happened after my cancer diagnosis was made. Rather, I thought it would be better if I talked about my medical history in the months before. Because it was in that period that awareness could have really made a difference for me.

A little over two weeks ago I was invited to talk about my experience with testicular cancer, Movember and the importance of awareness about men's health at the monthly (virtual) network lunch of the Dutch Game Garden. To give it a little bit more reach, I'm posting a recording of it here on this blog.

For a long time, #Movember, to me, meant a lot of pictures of mustaches on social media. This changed back in February - two days after I had been hospitalized for treatment of stage 3 testicular cancer... https://www.jonivanderleeuw.com/home/what-is-movember-all-about
