The Last Dayz: Film as Health Education

Brown Byrd Foundation · Prostate Cancer Awareness Resource Center

What you should know

The Foundation's founders created the short film The Last Dayz to tell the story of a young man facing a prostate cancer diagnosis. Storytelling can make difficult health conversations more approachable.

Why this matters

The Foundation combines personal storytelling with health awareness. Its advocacy work encourages families and communities to talk about prostate cancer and informed healthcare decisions.

People often encounter conflicting information about prostate cancer online. It is helpful to consider how a claim was studied, whether it comes from a recognized health organization, and whether it addresses screening, diagnosis, treatment, or supportive care. These are different questions that may require different medical decisions.

What to discuss with your care team

Ask how this topic relates to your age, personal and family history, previous tests, current symptoms, and healthcare goals. If a test or treatment is proposed, ask what the result could change, what uncertainties remain, and when follow-up is needed.

Practical next step

Watch the Foundation's videos and discuss the themes with friends or family.
