Last Wednesday, November 5th, my brother Zach was hospitalized, fighting bacterial meningitis. As many of you know, he has fought melanoma twice, having it come back in his brain in November 2024. In September 2025, he had his second brain surgery to clean up necrotic tissue at the cancer site. Last Wednesday, he had some extreme memory and personality changes, along with swelling over the brain surgery site. He has since been diagnosed and is fighting for his life against bacterial meningitis. It’s going to be a very long road to recovery. We are just so thankful to still have him here with us. Any help will go directly to his personal responsibilities as he was the only income for his family. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I will update as changes occur. Please keep sending out those prayers, healing vibes, and good juju ✨

Update 11/15: The infection itself is responding well to the antibiotics. His CSF is starting to clear & we no longer have to wear masks when we visit! A win is a win.

Neurologically, it’s going to take some time to get him back as he heals. He has days he knows us & days he doesn’t. He’s still singing randomly & playing the piano on our hands so Zach is definitely still in there! Thank you to every one of you that have donated & shared & prayed ❤️ we couldn’t do this without you.
