Can I Have My Ball Back?: A memoir of masculinity, mortality and my right testicle

Product Information

Anyone going through similar experiences – of the cancer treatment, that is, not visualisation of a wife’s future seducer – is likely to find both solace and comic relief in the frankness and wit of Herring’s descriptions. His honesty stretches from describing the very male reluctance to have the anomaly he spotted seen to (even though he was once part of a campaign encouraging men to do just that) to a form of survivors’ guilt that he got off lightly from his scrape with cancer compared to others. He then forcefully headbutts and shoves the man - sending him flying off his doorstep onto his parked car. About fifteen years ago, Richard Herring first took part in a campaign to encourage men to have a little (non-sexual) feel of their balls every now and again. But it was embarrassing and weird, and if there was something wrong, he didn't want to know about it.

Plus the Tom-biased ball-bag mail bag which covers epididymitis and how having testicular cancer can affect your subsequent outlook on life (in varying ways)

testicular torsion – a sudden painful swelling that happens when a testicle becomes twisted (this is a medical emergency and requires surgery as soon as possible)

A family claim their nightmare neighbour hated their fence so much she tried to tear it down - even though they'd done nothing wrong.

As someone who follows Rich's career and someone who is going through testicle-related nonsense myself currently, this was a familiar experience. Fun read with serious messaging. Very silly and oddly relaxing. This exclusive recording includes 4 audio extras that are unique to the audiobook, including interviews with Richard's wife Catie and oncologist Dr Sharma.

Most men's testicles are about the same size, but it's common for one to be slightly bigger than the other. It's also common for one testicle to hang lower than the other.
