Ret. D.A.R.E Off. Fighting Melanoma

Tony, 53, and wife, Pam, who are celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary on March 7, have five children combined. He is a retired law enforcement officer of 24 years, past President of the Texas State D.A.R.E. Officers Association, hometown hero and all around good guy. Loving. Helpful. Honest. Selfless. Hard worker. Feb 6, after having a growth above his belt line removed and biopsied Tony was informed he has Invasive Malignant Melanoma. Following scans and tests, he was diagnosed with Stage IV Metastatic Melanoma Cancer on Feb. 20, 2018. Inoperable, advanced and has invaded the organs. Scans, blood tests, MRIs and initial Oncologist consultations last week were over $10,000. Immunotherapy treatment is the only option and can run between $150,000 to $250,000 per year which is not covered by his insurance. Tony has the following to say to anybody willing to help support his fight, “I feel strong and confident we are going to beat this. I’m humbled by the outpouring of love and support I have already received. God bless everyone for their thoughts and prayers.” Please help my Step-Dad kick cancer’s ass! Love you guys.
