Funds to help with Ian’s medical expenses

My grad school roommate and her family are going through a terrible time right now. Their youngest child, Ian, who is almost 6 months old, developed some swelling under his right eye about 3 weeks ago. They took him to the ER was scheduled for an MRI this past Monday. During the wait, the growth spread to his left eye and his mouth. He was intubated on Monday for his MRI. They found multiple tumors growing, most dangerously on his head and near his airway but also on his liver and several lymph nodes. Yesterday he was diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma which is very rare for his age. They are asking for your thoughts and prayers for Ian, and for their family.

My goal is to raise some money to help with medical bills but also just to help alleviate the monetary stresses while working, caring for Ian and caring for their other children (Maura, 5 and Marcus, 3). If we could decrease that burden and allow them to spend more time focusing on their family, it would be amazing. Thank you so much for considering a donation.
