Earlier this year, Eddie found a lump in one of his testicles.
After he got it checked. Eddie was diagnosed with stage 1 testicular cancer, and went on to have surgery and treatment. Then came the news that he was cancer-free.
Now, Eddie and his girlfriend Meg are taking on the St Thomas' Abseil in September, raising money for the Teenage and Young Adult (TYA) team at Guy's Cancer.
Eddie said:
"I’m incredibly lucky that this has affected me so minimally, so I want to give back to the support groups that have helped me and countless other young people through similar situations."
The TYA team is there for young people facing cancer, offering counselling, connecting patients with the right charities and bringing people together who understand what they're going through.
Eddie also wants to spread awareness of how important it is for people to check themselves and to not be afraid about getting these things investigated. Early diagnosis saves lives.
