Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money for Sarcoma UK as my brother was previous diagnosed with myxoid liposarcoma in September 2015 and following successful treatments of radiotherapy and surgery at that time, he thought he had seen the last of it. Sadly it returned in April 2023 and following chemotherapy, this was not enough to be rid of it for a second time, and he sadly passed away very suddenly in March 2024 leaving us all absolutely devastated.

Liposarcoma develops from the fat cells found all over the body. There are an average of 454 cases of liposarcoma diagnosed every year in England. Liposarcoma makes up 11.51% of all soft tissue sarcomas, and about 0.15% of all cancers. There are double the amount of males diagnosed with liposarcoma versus females.

So far, since I set up this fundraising page for Sarcoma UK, I have:

Started a full play-through of The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition. This game filled my childhood with many happy family memories. The videos are all available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLWC2gI31vhKx6w-k-wr27DLrt8B0vLpE.

Started a full play-through of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge: Special Edition. The videos, as they are uploaded, are available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLWC2gI31vhKGOQUNMc2bsUBBvnG-9rjD.

I have set up a series of charity donation pages which can be viewed on my team page (https://www.justgiving.com/teams/vixzen). I will be promoting these while either live-streaming video games, uploading gaming videos to YouTube, or by taking part in specific charity fundraising events. More information about me can be found on my website: https://www.vixzen.me.uk/

When I am fundraising for Sarcoma UK on my gaming stream (on https://www.twitch.tv/vixzens) there will be a link to this page available, so please feel free to donate any monies that you are able to towards this amazing charity. My YouTube channel is also available for archived/pre-recorded videos (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8q_vL0bnL5PT9akPs3kPEg).
