I have been diagnosed with metastatic cancer and need to travel to Seattle for a surgery that could be life-saving. There’s a possibility I’ll need more surgeries soon after. The funds raised here will go directly to travel expenses, getting me to and from Seattle, and covering a hotel stay so I can recover before making the trip back home.

This is my second battle with cancer in just a few years. The first time, I went through months of chemo treatments and surgeries, which took a huge toll on my finances. As someone who’s been self-employed for 8 years, it’s been especially hard to keep up with the mounting costs. Now, with the cancer returning and being even more aggressive, surgery—or possibly multiple surgeries—may be my only hope to stick around for my wife and kids.

If you’re able to donate or share my story, you’re helping me get one step closer to seeing my kids grow up and spending more time with my wife. Your support means the world to me, and I am deeply grateful for any help you can give.
