Our very dear friend Christian is 31 years old and was diagnosed with stage three cancer this past year. For those of you who know him, you know that he is an extraordinary human being.  He is undoubtedly funny, cheerful, loving, unbelievably strong and always puts his friends and family before himself. Just like the Marine saying “ Semper Fidelis,” always faithful that is who Christian is. Always faithful to his brother in arms, always loyal to his friends and family.

Since July, he went through Experimental Chemotherapy to shrink the tumor surrounding his main artery in his stomach. His immune system was compromised and he had to have multiple blood transfusions. During all this his kidneys started to fail due to an infection. Christian ended up needing emergency surgery. He is recovering and trying to get strong enough to do chemo again. The cancer has spread to his other organs also. As soon as he is able to, his doctors are going to start him back on experimental chemotherapy.

Because of this, he has been unable to work and will likely not be able to return until this is all behind him.

Short term disability unfortunately does not provide full pay.  Some of his medical expenses are not covered and with the everyday necessities of life, money is getting tighter and tighter.  

Christian is one of the strongest, most selfless people we have ever known and is always there to give his love and support or the shirt off his back to anyone that needs it.  

He fought for his country as a Marine and his bravery endured with every surgery and chemotherapy treatment that he had to battle.

Now, it's time that we send back some of that love and support to Christian. Anything you can donate will be truly appreciated.  Everything we can do to help and surround him with love is what is most important so he can focus on beating this thing.  Please spread the word. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
