Help Don Gramse Battle Cancer

Donation protected
In mid-October, Don was diagnosed with Squamous of the tonsil, a malignant cancer.  In just over a month he has endured numerous tests, doctor/hospital visits, surgeries, etc.  The plan was to start radiation and then chemotherapy to treat this disease.  Just last week, Don went in for  surgery to insert a feeding tube, as well as more testing and it was discovered that the cancer has spread.  The fortunate news is that his group of doctors seem to be on an aggressive path to kill this terrible disease.  Don and Han are at St. Josephs, as I write this, undergoing a 100+ hour chemotherapy session.  This is just the beginning of a very long road.  Those of you that know Don know what a caring and giving individual he is.  We are asking for you, friends and family, to assist in any way you can.  Doctor and hospital bills, medications, time away from work, everyday living - these are all things that Don will face over the next several months on his road to fighting and recovering.  Every little bit helps and eases the burden that this toll will take on Don and Han.  I will be leaving this page up over the next several weeks.  Feel free to reach out to Don or Han directly, or myself if you have any questions.  These two are lucky to have a strong support group already and speaking for them, I know how much they appreciate all of you, your encouraging words and overall concern.
