Let's End Childhood Cancer Togther!
My name is Nathan and I am fighting a battle for my life every day against a cancer that has no cure. I am 26 years old and was diagnosed with non clear cell renal carcinoma after having one of my kidneys removed about 4 years ago. Devastation is the only word I can use that describes that kind of news and what it does not only to you but to your family and friends. Cancer is a darkness that steals your body and your soul. Your days are filled with hospital visits, Doctor appointments, scans, scopes, needles and tests and other things you will have nightmares about. You live on a daily diet of "medicine" being swallowed, injected, infused, inserted and applied and you don't go anywhere without something to vomit in. Cancer drags you into a war you will fight for the rest of your so-called life.
Now imagine being a child just beginning to explore life and this is what you are experiencing . . . .
My heart breaks for these children, for what they must go through and endure. If my death resulted in no more children ever having to go through this, then let it come, but that is not how it works. I need your help, your compassion and your support to help these children, to end cancer so no more children have to suffer. I have opened this account to raise money for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital because I believe this is their best chance of survival and that's why I have set a goal of $10,000 to be raised and donated to this hospital. You can't help me with my cancer, I already have a good team of Doctors doin what They can but you can help me reach my goal of donating $10,000 before my journey is over. Please help me to help the children so no more of them have to suffer, please send your donation to help put an end to childhood cancer.
