Hi everyone,

We're reaching out with heavy hearts but hopeful spirits to ask for your support for someone incredibly special to us — Eric, a devoted husband, brother, and friend — who is bravely battling glioblastoma, an aggressive and unforgiving form of brain cancer.

Since his diagnosis, Eric has endured surgeries, treatments, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with fighting this disease. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: his deep love and connection with his wife, Kate. Their strength as a couple has inspired everyone who knows them.

As they navigate the difficult days ahead, Eric and Kate have one heartfelt wish: to take a meaningful trip together — a chance to step away from hospital rooms and appointments, and simply enjoy time together in a place that brings them peace and joy. Whether it's by the ocean, in the mountains, or somewhere they've always dreamed of visiting, this journey would be a beautiful escape and a chance to create lasting memories.

We're hoping to raise funds to help make this trip a reality within the next few weeks - covering travel, accommodations, and any necessary care or comfort items Eric might need along the way.

If you’re able to give, no matter the amount, it will go directly toward this special trip for Eric and Kate. And if you can’t donate right now, simply sharing this campaign with your network means the world to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting two people who deserve a little peace, joy, and time together. Your generosity is a gift they will never forget.
