Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,
We are reaching out to ask for your continued prayers and support for our dear friend James — a bright, compassionate, and courageous young man currently fighting the battle of his life.
James was recently diagnosed with glioblastoma an aggressive brain cancer and has already undergone several complex surgeries.
This sudden diagnosis has taken a tremendous emotional, physical, and financial toll on him and his loved ones.
In the coming weeks, James will begin chemotherapy and radiation to target the 20% of the tumor that remains.
Once James is home and well enough to travel, the goal is to take him to Boston Children’s Hospital and Dana-Farber to consult with top NF1 neuro-oncologists.
How You Can Help
We are asking for your help in the following ways:
PRAYERS — This is the most important thing you can give. Please continue to pray for James, his medical team, and his family. We are trusting God for healing, strength, and peace through every part of this journey.
DONATIONS — Please consider donating to help cover:
Travel for treatment
Medications and therapies
Alternative treatments not covered by insurance
Mobility aids and equipment James may need
If you prefer not to donate online, contributions can also be sent by mail to:
46 Patterson St, Hampden, Maine 04444
SHOWING UP — We know how powerful encouragement can be. Please consider sending James a card, text, or message to keep his spirits high. We will share an update as soon as he is ready for in-person visits — likely sometime next week.
This is a family that has always poured out love and support to others. Now, they need us to rally around them.
We believe in the power of community, and in the power of prayer. Thank you for standing with James during this difficult season. With God, all things are possible. ❤️
With heartfelt gratitude,
