Story

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Liam Waddington, other known as Vizeh. I'm an online content creator with 85,000 subscribers. For years i've wanted to find a way to fundraise for MS Society however never had the resources to do it properly. Now it's the time.

What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?

Multiple Sclerosis is a life-long disease that to this date has NO CURE. This disease affects your brain, spinal cord, and the optic nerves in your eyes. It also causes problems with vision, balance and muscle control and other basic body functions. 

Stats

2,500,000 people across the world suffer from MS.

200 new cases of MS found each week

People mainly diagnosed between ages 20-60

So why Multiple Sclerosis Society?

My mum was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis before I was born, this impacted my mums life drastically over a course of 14 years. In which from my childhood, day by day I watched my mum slowly and slowly get weaker, many times I came back home from Primary School on her suffering on the floor unable to get up, with nothing I can do to help. This lasted until she was inevitably put in a wheelchair for many years relying on others to survive.

Until time ran out for her.

At this time of my life I needed a coping mechanism, so I started doing scary game videos on a channel called Vizeh that was my Xbox Gamertag. The time I spent recording, editing and making videos helped me massively when 14, living for that one comment from anyone showing support to keep me going.

5 years later, those few videos have turned into 1015 videos, and somehow i've gained an audience that means the absolute world to me, cause without them, my life would be much more different. So now I want to do everything I can to ensure that others don't go through what my mum went through.
