Story

As most of you are aware, back in June I was diagnosed with a very rare type of lung cancer and since have been undergoing all different types of treatment to get rid of the evil Gremlin. I am fortunate enough to be under the care of the amazing surgeon Mr.Eric Lim, who has already removed over 50% of my tumour. Not only does he commit his life to saving the lives of many people around the world through surgery, but is constantly in the process of an amazing research project with the aim of finding a simple blood test that can identify lung cancer. In the words of CEO Mark Zuckerberg: 

'Today we spend about 50 times more as a society treating people who are sick than we invest in research so you won't get sick in the first place.'

Considering it is that giving time of the year and I'm currently too unwell to undertake any exciting challenges (this is yet to come when i'm all better, don't you worry!) All I can ask is that instead of anyone getting me any birthday or Christmas presents, please donate to this worthy cause instead. 


Many thanks and Merry Christmas!! :)
