Help George Sirota beat Thymoma Cancer

Hi, my name is Joe Giacomiazzio and I am supporting my cousin George Sirota in his toughest battle that one can face in life. 

 

In June 2021 doctors found a mass in George's CT scan. The mass is in his thymus gland and triggered an autoimmune disease called Myasthenia gravis which caused his left eye to droop.

 

On August 11th George had surgery to remove the mass through his left side of his abdomen. During surgery, the surgeon was not able to remove a mass the size of a lemon and they biopsied the tumor. Results came back as Thymoma cancer Type B2 with B3 component.

 

He is now undergoing chemotherapy treatments with the hopes of shrinking the tumor. A great team of doctors at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center will evaluate the tumor after treatments of chemo to see if the mass is operable through the chest cavity. After surgery George will receive proton therapy radiation.

 

George has a strong fighting spirit with a great sense of humor. With the help of family, friends, prayers and encouragement it makes all the difference in helping George and his family through this tough battle. His twins girls just started third grade and have been praying for their daddy to get better. George's amazing wife Kristy is doing everything she can to help George stay strong and positive. George's dog Alf also provides great emotional support.

 

George is one of the most generous, kind-hearted and loving individuals that you will ever come in contact with. He truly wears his heart on his sleeve and will give a "stranger" the shirt off his back. 

 

This doesn't represent even a fragment of how we feel. My cousin has already acquired extensive medical expenses.

 

Any contributions are greatly appreciated as we continue this battle towards George's recovery. 

God Bless you all
