Steve's Road To Recovery

Donation protected

Hi Everyone, I'm Krystal, Steve's sister and I wanted to start a gofund me to help raise money for Steve for all his medical expenses that he has and will be enduring through his road to recovery. On July 30, Steve had a life altering major surgery for the removal of his entire stomach(gastrectomy). The reason this preventive measure was taken was because he has a rare genetic mutation of the Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) gene which causes Familial Adenomatos polyposis(FAP). Only 25 people in the world have this genetic mutation gene and Steve was unfortunately is #26. The rare genetic mutation that he has, causes massive amount of polyps in the stomach, which causes gastric cancer in 100% of the cases. The removal of the stomach was the best preventive medicine that could have been done for him to prevent cancer down the road. The surgery went well for Steve and now he has a long road to recovery ahead of him. Any donation is appreciated as this was an unexpected life changing surgery and the short time frame from diagnosis to the surgery date didn't give much time to financially prepare for this and during recovery. Thank you for taking the time to read this and please feel free to share.
