My name is Jodi Suscewicz and I am campaigning for my little brother, Justin.
On August 7th, just 6 days after his 24th birthday, he brought himself to the doctor after experiencing incredible pain in his groin, He thought it might be a UTI.
The doctors quickly and accurately told him he had testicular cancer. Within a week he had surgery to remove one testicle. Further testing just a week later, the doctors discovered there were more cancer cells, not only in his abdomen, but harder to kill cancer cells in his lungs that can only be hit with chemotherapy.
Justin starts chemotherapy tomorrow, Monday September 19th, 2016.
Because the chemotherapy sessions last for 4 to 6 hours a day, the doctors are confident that Justin will be unable to work. He will be tired, he will lose his hair, and his immune system will be severly weakened, especially as we head into winter.  
Justin works at Walmart as a manager.  Because he will not be able to work (even though he is adamant , he will try) he has to terminate his apartment lease with his roommate, and will be moving in with my parents.
My parents are hard-working folks in their sixties. 
My dad works for a pool company in the spring/summer but loses employment and only plows in the winter. My mother works for Walmart.
 As it is, my parents do not have an easy life. They have taken more then the alloted time off for work to be with my brother, and will continue to do so, as Justin enters his chemotherapy cycles. They do not know how they will help pay for Justin's medical bills. And they must continue to work. 
This campaign is for 24 year-old Justin. To help him pay his bills, to help my parents with their efforts, and just to ease their struggles financially.  
If you read this, THANK YOU.
If you contribute, THANK YOU. 

No matter what, I need to help him, but I can't do it alone.
