Hello everyone, this is Rich. He’s a 52-year-old dad to 5 sons; 4 are adults, and the youngest boy is 7, whom he has custody of.

In May 2025, we received the news that they found a mass on the left side of his brain. He underwent all kinds of tests to rule out infections or anything else that might be the cause of the mass before they performed the brain biopsy. It took several weeks before we got pathology results. June 19 is the day we were told the mass was an Infiltrating Glioma.

The doctors have decided to treat his cancer aggressively. He has 30 radiation treatments, and along with radiation, he is taking a chemo medication called Temodar every night for the whole duration of radiation and will continue beyond the treatments with a modified dose.

We are raising money to help with medical expenses and also to help with a vehicle for the family as they are in need of one desperately since Rich had totaled the car in April.
