Everyone, please meet Chandler, your all-American boy who is stepping into his teenage years. His greatest loves in life are his family and baseball. Chandler loves deeply; he is a sensitive young man who never wants to let anyone down.

Doctors Notes:

Chandler has been diagnosed with an ADVANCED stage of a serious ear condition that requires immediate medical attention. Cholesteatomas are abnormal skin growths in the middle ear that can lead to progressive damage to nearby structures. The erosion of bone, especially around the sigmoid sinus, lateral canal, and ossicles, indicates the advanced stage of the disease and the risk of complications. Chandler has erosion of the Sigmoid Sinus: This is a major vein located near the back of the ear . Chandler has conductive hearing lose on the right side. We are hopeful that surgery can help to correct all hearing which may require a prosthetic device to replace the eroded bones.

My request is to help the family during the down time during recovery for Chandler the help the family stay afloat while missing work to help covers finances so Chandler mom can be with him

He was referred to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville but was turned away because he is only 13, and the clinic requires patients to be at least 16 years old.

Chandler's mom has already lost a lot of work, and with the upcoming surgery and the considerable out-of-pocket costs for traveling back and forth to Augusta, along with the lengthy recovery time Chandler will face, I am creating this GoFundMe to ask for your help in supporting Chandler and his family during this challenging time.

Thank you everyone for all of the thoughts and prayers for Chandler and family.
