Donations for Richie

Donation protected

As many of you already know, Richie is now back in the hospital. This time his health has taken a drop. Being at about 80 pounds, unable to eat because of the pain, he is battling a life and death struggle right now. He has a chance to turn himself around. However, he needs to start doing what he has to, to live. His past up to today has been a living nightmare for him. When my brother was very young he was diagnosed with Kidney Failure, at the age of ten he was put on dialysis. For almost all of his childhood he didn't get to enjoy the things he wanted to. When Richie turned twenty he was given a kidney. Ten years later and he is diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus. On November 23, 2015 He received his last chemotherapy and radiation treatment and almost two months later had a successful surgery. Shortly after, my brother was admitted into the hospital with severe pneumonia. Recently sent home and now he is back in the hospital and is fighting with the little bit he has in him. Has tests and procedures he needs to have done, unable to work, no longer making money and his health insurance does not cover most of the tests. Any donation helps. Richie has been fighting all of his life to live, he is so strong and we are all so proud of all of the hard work he puts into his recovery. However, this is a tough one. He lost a lot of weight from being sick with pneumonia, struggling badly and is now trying hard everyday to get back on track. I need my brother around for many years so please help him get the proper help he needs from the doctors. Let's help Richie at a new start in life. I thank you all so kindly in advance for all of your support. ❤❤
