Bear Cub Growls for Ezra (Medical)

Donation protected
Our wonderful grandson Ezra (the younger of identical twins) has recently been diagnosed with Neuroblastoma (Stage 4), a rare form of childhood cancer. He is currently being treated at Seattle Children’s Hospital after being MedEvac there with his dad, Marvin.  The doctors want his parents to be housed nearby.  With the restrictions of COVID-19, the Seattle area for housing, food, transportation and other necessities are very costly.  

So far, Ezra's treatment will be a series of short and long hospital stays depending on the treatment being performed.  The  short hospital stay can be 5-7 days for chemotherapy with no complications of fever.  A long hospital stay can be a month (this part is coming up quickly).  The anticipated treatment period is about a year or longer.   Mommy and Daddy are the only two allowed to be with Ezra and only one at a time.  They switch off daily when he is in hospital.  They are so cognizant that Ezra can catch anything so shopping is limited to getting fuel, order in, drop offs/pickups for food, groceries and other necessities.  

Marvin and Alyssa Marizan (his parents) live and work in Alaska. The COVID-19 travel quarantine in both states make it difficult to travel to and from Alaska at this time.   

WE are extremely grateful for your gifts and meeting out initial goal.  WE have increased our goal  as we had no idea what was involved when we initially started the fund.   Your continued support is appreciated.  WE also ask most fervently for MIRACLE prayers.

This fund will be used to assist his parents to be with Ezra during his hospital stays and treatments, to include housing, transportation , food and other incidentals. 


Please help Ezra and his family as they go through this journey. Any amount is greatly appreciated. Blessings to you all!
