Story

How do! 

My name is J, however everyone online knows me as Cartman. I am playing Pokemon for 24 hours to raise money for The Lymphoedema Support Network (LSN). 

They are a charity NOT funded by the government or the NHS and run solely on the generosity of donations and their members. The charity has run for 30 years supporting people with Lymphoedema.

The reason I chose LSN is because I myself have Lymphoedema in both legs, so this personal to me and I have spent the last 5 years living with it and most likely will do for the rest of my life. Every time I tell people I have it, they ask; "Whats that?" and thats a problem, there is not enough awareness about Lymphoedema. 

During the live stream I plan to talk about the condition, the causes and the effects it can have on your life. I will also show my array of Compression garments I have to wear every day to stop the swelling and the keep the fluid moving. 

I will be doing forfeits based on the amount of money that is donated by each person. Amounts and forfeits are yet to be decided but it will involve waxing, lemons, limes and various other horrible things I do not like for your viewing pleasure and just to entertain you all and keep the stream fresh throughout the duration. WARNING! nothing will be happening to my hair or beard they are no no's :) sorry.

There will also be giveaways during the stream also as a thank you from me for taking part, watching and donating.
