I believe everyone knows who Ryan is, whether you've met him or not. He is my little bro, and ALWAYS has a smile on his face and love in his heart. He was born as a quadriplegic w/ Cerebral Palsy and has never once let it bring him down. Well, recently Ryan hasn't been feeling well, and was taken to the ER on Wednesday, July 2nd. From there, he was transported by ambulance to MD Anderson Oncology Hospital in Houston, and he has been diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. As of just a few hours ago, he was released from ICU and still has a least a week before he can be released. We are thankful for that, as he proposed release date was 3-4 weeks.

My mother, Gina, and I receive our income from Medicaid for being his caretakers. As of last Thursday, we have been "cut" since Ryan is in the hospital and will not be able to earn income until he's released back into our care. We are asking for any assistance, so that we can get through the next month or so.

I sincerely appreciate anything to help, and even if you are unable to assist, please continue to keep us in your prayers and send all the healing energy our way.

From the bottom of our hearts, Thank You!!
