Hello Friends, Family, Associates  Partners Colleagues and all my amazing Followers... I am using my platform to humbly come to you all to ask for your gracious monetary support in helping me with a near and dear friend of mine, who is battling Stage IV Breast Cancer.

This is his story...

His name is Tyson T Riley, we have been friends for over 20+ years. Our friendship started off as somewhat  of a mentor-mentee relationship that grew into an amazing friendship and brotherhood that was built on love respect and showing up for one another during hard times.
My brother is now going through a hard time in his fight for his life with this battle, and if using my platform to help him is all I can do...  I want to give it my best shot.
He is currently battling Stage 4 breast cancer. He has been battling this disease since 2008 and privately battling Stage 4 since 2013. 
He is a Afro-American, 50yr old Transgender, Single Dad of 2 small children ages 3 & 6yrs.
He has dedicated his life to serving young people throughout his chosen career, in the field of Social Services. Now he is in need of service and the support of other to help him beat the disease of Cancer.
He has been on a multitude of Chemotherapy Treatments over the last 8 years... but was recently told by his Oncologist (cancer specialist) that there are no more available conventional  treatments, specific to the cancer he is battling.
His only option at this point is Intravenous Chemotherapy, of which he has done 10 rounds of earlier in his diagnosis.  Those treatments stopped working years ago, which is why he was placed on Targeted Hormone Therapy treatments... these treatments were working up until a few months ago.
Due to all the toxic Conventional Treatments he has been on over the course of 8 years, he is now working with a weakened immune system. Therefore we do not believe going back to Intravenous Chemotherapy will help him at this stage... in fact we believe it will actually hurt. It would be equivalent to putting someone in hospice, when there are no other options... its like giving up!
Giving up is NOT an option for him and will never be an option!
He is saying "NO" to Intravenous Chemotherapy, unless it's in conjunction with Alternative Holistic Therapy.
He would like to go a totally holistic route. We believe with everything in us that taking a totally holistic approach will give him a much better chance at a at a longer life span.
He is willing to go as extreme as he needs to, to be here for the 2 kids he'd always dreamt of having and loves more than anything.
As I sit here writing this out and the tears flow down my face... thinking about how he told me, him and his siblings were abandoned by his parents at 3yrs old. How he has always talked about never wanting his kids to ever have that experience or pain.

For this reason, I know he will FIGHT!!!

Tyson has always been an extremely private person... SO, as deficult as it is for him to ask for any type of monetary help or to allow me to do this for him...  being such a very private person, he is looking at the bigger picture now "His Kids"!

In that, I come to you with the greatest amount of humbleness and graciousness possible, asking for your monetary support to helpn me, help him receive a year long intense Holistic Treatment. This treatment can give him a chance at an extended life and a significant amount of time to spend raising his kids.

For those who don't know how the medical system works, he has medical insurance however insurance companies do not pay for Holistic Treatments or Care, he will have to pay for it fully, out of pocket. Part of these treatments require in hospital stays and then after care.
A year of treatment can cost more than $40,000  
I want to sincerely and personally Thank You All and more importantly the Universe will Thank You for your kind heart and generosity!
I also want to Thank Everyone that read this and that have it on your heart to give but cannot do so at this time.

Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!
