FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - September is prostate cancer awareness month, and today, you're invited to tie one on for prostate cancer.  Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana is sponsoring events, in eleven area counties.  You'll see blue neckties in public locations, as a visual message about prostate cancer awareness.


Prostate cancer represents a third of all new cancer cases in American men, that's more than any other form of cancer. According to Cancer Services, one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer.
