Here is the monthly summary of what we all achieved in August 2024. Something new, something blue and some borrowed too! The main headline is the announcment that my private facebook group now has 10,000 members. This is further evidence that our cancer is not rare.
One reason I am very thankful is because I continue to interleave personal life via short motorhome breaks and maintenance of my blog and other social media sites. August was another 25,000 blog views towards a projected annual increase over 2023. I wish I could do even more but there’s just little old me! And Chris too of course for those following my exploits on Facebook Page Ronny Allan. Fortunatey I have a great 2IC and admin team in my private group, so that runs as normal, even when there are over 10,000 members.
Firstly, I’ll list the top 10 performing blog posts in August, I can assure you there is some great information in there, and you may have missed some of my newest blogs which also made it to the top 10. Click the blue heading or the picture on each. Every share spreads awareness and you potentially save someone’s life. I normally post my new blog posts on my Facebook page Neuroendocrine Cancer and/or World Neuroendcrine Cancer Day and sometimes on Ronny Allan.
Holiday photos, personal stuff, and often some areas of amusement are normally published on my Facebook page Ronny Allan (although I sometimes sneak one in on these monthly reviews!)
I’m thankful to the loyal supporters on my blog site and the other social media sites day and night (and I do note some doing both!). I really am very grateful. You know who you are – take a bow!

The group was an afterthought. In terms of the largest patient groups across the world, mine is the newest but has grown into the biggest, perhaps the international flavour helps. In terms of membership sources, US,UK, Canada, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Ireland, India, Germany and Netherlands dominate making almost 90% of the group membership.
The group passed 10,000 membership today 31st August 2024! Not as rare as you think!

I would also mention those who contributed to my “Tea Fund” which resides on PayPal. You don’t need a PayPal account as you can select a card but don’t forget to select the number of units first (i.e. 1 = £4, 2 = £8, 3 = £12, and so on), plus further on, tick a button to NOT create a PayPal account if you don’t need one. Clearly, if you have a PayPal account, the process is much simpler
