Thread 'My life with Knee Pain'
My knees have been a constant problem for as long as I can remember. They aren’t like most people’s knees. The kneecaps don’t have a natural resting point because the bone groove that should guide and hold them in place simply isn’t there. Without that groove, my kneecaps shift and slip around, putting constant strain on my ligaments — ligaments that are already damaged. That combination means pain is part of my everyday life. It’s not the kind of pain that comes and goes after an injury...

Thread 'What is Andy's Man Club?'
I never thought I’d be in a group of men discussing my emotions. Honestly, the concept would have bothered me about three months ago. Like countless others, I was brought up with the belief that to be male was to be quiet, get on with things and handle the hardships of life on your own. But that silence was consuming me from the inside out. Two months back, I followed my heart and stepped into Andy's Man Club with no idea what lay ahead of me and not even knowing if I'd be able to say...
