Man with weeks to live highlights the importance of early cancer detection

With only a few weeks left to live, Hugh Cooney is desperately trying to spread awareness about cancer and the importance of early detection.

Men in particular, he said, need to pay more attention to their bodies and should go to the doctor with health concerns more often, no matter how insignificant those concerns may seem.

Hugh, who is a former chairman of EnterpriseIreland, was diagnosed with cancer two years ago.
