Alan’s Make Life Squeal Cancer treatments
Donation protected
I created this Go Fund Me to support my brother, Alan, who has recently been diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma brain tumor. My brother is an amazing person. To know him is to know love, compassion and laughter. Alan’s shocking diagnosis has left us all devastated and overwhelmed. The tremendous outpouring of love, support and prayers from friends and family has been a lifeboat for us, and we are grateful beyond words. Though we have no idea what the future will bring, Alan has decided to fight, and fight hard. I know he is counting on us to stand by him and help him fight the good fight. Many have generously offered to help. One crucial way to is to answer the call of this Go Fund Me. We need help with bills and treatments that will not be covered by insurance. With the aid of Alan’s “niece” and graphic artist, Rikki Saydman, I made t-shirts to support Alan’s campaign. “Grab Life by the Tail and Make it Squeal” is Alan’s personal motto. He created it as a declaration of war against cancer. Please support Alan’s fight. Here are ways you can help: 1. Donate $36 to Plant a Tree in Israel in Alan’s name. Send a gofundme message to Heidi using the contact button below with "TREE" to plant a tree in Alan's name. 2. Donate $54 and receive a "Grab Life by the Tail and Make it Squeal" t-shirt. Send a gofundme message to Heidi using the contact button below with "SQUEAL" to order a t-shirt. Include size and color choice (XXXL, XXL, XL, L, M, S, XS) / (white or grey). 3. Other shirt options : https://grablife.spiritsale.com/ 4. Cash donation of any amount. Why are the donations in increments of 18? Eighteen is the numerical value of the Hebrew word “chai” which means “life.” It has long been a Jewish custom to donate in increments of 18, thus symbolically blessing the recipient of the gift with a good, LONG life. Thank you and God bless you. #FCancer #grablifebythetail #makeitsqueal
