Hello,

My name is Jonathan Rodgers, and over the past few months, I have learned that I have stage 4B Hodgkin's Lymphoma. When I was first told I might have cancer late last year, I was working as a poker dealer at Filotimo Casino in New Hampshire. Because of my diagnosis, I decided to move down to Texas to receive treatment and be close to family during this time. I arrived in Austin beginning of January and began receiving A+AVD Chemotherapy right away. My disease is very progressed, but also very treatable. I am going to beat this.

That said, cancer is expensive. I have insurance and it is paying for my treatments, but only after an $8500 deductible is met. And I have been out of work for the past couple of months dealing with my treatment and its side effects. I am currently in the process of getting a job dealing poker here in Austin, but in the meantime, bills are piling up. Though I've never been one to ask for help, I could really use some.

I deeply appreciate any donations and your thoughts and prayers are valued. Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Jonathan
