Support Franky's Fight Against Cancer

Donation protected
To all our friends & family,

This fundraiser is for our beloved Franky, who has been an integral part of our Edge family for over a decade now, and one of the most loyal and best chefs around town for over 40+ years. To know Franky is to love him.

As many of you know, Frank has been in excruciating pain for quite some time now. He went to the ER on Saturday, July 12th, and has been there since.

Frank is diagnosed with SCC (Squamous Cell Carcinoma) cancer. It is a very uncommon type of cancer that develops in the tissues or lining of your anal canal.

If detected and treated early enough, SCC is often curable. We don't have all the answers quite yet, but the doctor is staying positive and working on a plan to remove the mass.

As of now, the plan is to start chemo and radiation to shrink the mass small enough to be able to remove it and have a lesser chance of the cancer spreading.

They also found blood clots in his chest and put him on blood thinners. They think in time this will heal and thankfully not in his lungs or heart.

He has a swollen lymph node in his neck, which the doctors are going to test & decide how to proceed.

We are all awaiting his release, hoping for this week. In the meantime, we are trying to raise money to help with his outstanding medical bills and time missed from work.

Any and all donations are greatly appreciated; every dollar goes directly to medical bills and living expenses.

Let's rally together to show Franky he is not alone in this fight!!

If you can't donate, please consider sharing this post. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean more than words can express.
