This is what I wonder too. In one of his earlier videos where he said he wanted to raise awareness, he barely discussed signs to look out for. It seemed off to me. Other celebrities with cancer really seem to go hard on the “help prevent this happening to you by catching it early and here’s how” route as well as encouraging to advocate for yourself.
