A man diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer said the news felt like falling into a "black hole", as he urged others to check for signs of the disease.
Danny Burkey, from Ossett, was diagnosed in 2021, and was told his condition was incurable after a bone scan.
The 59-year-old spoke as Prostate Cancer UK launched a campaign urging men to visit their GP with prostate concerns, in the hope of an early diagnosis.
Mr Burkey told BBC Radio Leeds: "You think it is always going to happen to somebody else; you just cannot believe it is you."
Mr Burkey sought a diagnosis after experiencing symptoms related to prostate cancer.
