Story
If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that cancer is a twat.
A proper, honest-to-muggins twat. If cancer was a person at a party, it would be the one who drinks themselves stupid, shouts unintelligibly in your ear from three inches away for ages, makes a terrible pass at someone else’s partner and then vomits on themselves in a corner, all before 7.30pm. The person that nobody ever invites, and the one we all wish would just fuck off and leave us alone.
Unfortunately, cancer hasn’t quite got the message that we all hate it. You’d think that it would’ve taken the hint by now, what with us doing everything we can to obliterate it with drugs and nuclear weaponry every time it shows up, but no. It’s still there, being a twat.
Until cancer finally gives up and goes away, we have to keep fighting it. We have to catch it as early as possible, tell it in no uncertain terms that it isn’t welcome, and then kick the shit out of it. And raising money means that we can fight harder, shout louder and invest in more destructive shit-kicking weapons to make sure that the twat gets the message.
So, Agathe and Matt have set this page up to raise some cash for CoppaFeel! who are the UK’s only youth-focused breast cancer awareness charity. They work tirelessly to educate people on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, because early diagnosis increases the chances of effective treatment.
All cancers are a twat, but breast cancer is a particularly familiar twat for us. Agathe had breast cancer, beat it and now takes every opportunity to stick two middle fingers up at it. Matt has seen first-hand the impact that breast cancer has on the loved ones of those who don’t beat it, and wants to help make sure that nobody ever loses their battle again.
On Sunday 18th May, we’ll run the Hackney half-marathon with giant boobs strapped to ourselves. Like, really giant boobs. Much bigger than we expected when one of us said ‘hey, why don’t we run with giant boobs strapped to ourselves?’. But we’ve said we’ll do it now, so giant boobs it is.
Please donate if you can.
Support the boobs. Save the boobs.
