We pioneer life-saving cancer research to help us beat cancer

Story

I am doing this because I am battling cancer for the third time in three years. I have had 2 major life-saving surgeries and over 50 doses of chemotherapy. I absolutely refuse to let cancer beat me even though it got close twice.

I live by my mantra of Never Give Up, never Give In.

Any contribution that you can make will be hugely appreciated. In my experience in fighting and beating cancer, positivity and focus are key.

Coming to think about it, not unlike doing stand up. And in truth, I cant wait to get back on that stage and hopefully make people laugh.... and if you want to see if I do, get yourself a ticket and enjoy a great night out for a cause that might quite literally save your life or someone that you love. 

After all, 1 in 2 of us will get cancer, so please get involved and lets work together to beat this cruel disease, many thanks my friends
