Story

 The day before my 24th Birthday the 12th of March I was diagnosed with testicular cancer, I was informed it is at an advanced stage and has spread to my stomach, chest and lungs....

I have had my sperm frozen to give me the opportunity to start a family in later life, On the 1st of April I had my testicle removed and a prosthetic one fitted hence the new nickname “Fake Ball Bake” & “Fakey Bakey”

On the 14th of April I have a meeting with my chemotherapy consultant to discuss and book in the start of my chemotherapy journey, although they said there is a possibility I could keep my hair I have decided to shave all my hair off and raise money for testicular cancer awareness, Please all make regular checks and if anything does not seem right get to the doctors and get checked out straight away.

Dig deep people and lets all raise money for a great cause!!!!

I will be having my hair shaved off at the woodlands edge pub on the 18th of April. if you can turn up and show support that will be great..

Everyman is an appeal run by The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR). Every year some 10,000 men lose their lives to prostate cancer and over 2,000 others have their world turned upside down by a diagnosis of testicular cancer. These men are the reason we are fundraising for male specific cancers.
