Story

As some of you may be aware (haha) 6 years ago I was diagnosed with lymphoblastic lymphoma which put my life on hold for 10 month, starting in February and ending in November (I believe, it might of been before but not 100% as it was some time ago)

Basically I want to give back to the system in some way and YCT was one of the few places that kinda helped me during my time in and out of hospital.

I'm doing this as a lot of people don't think I can successfully do this time because of little things like working in a Bar (the four Horsemen) living above the same bar. So I'm gunna prove everyone wrong and hopefully make some money for charity.  

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
