It is with a heavy heart that I have to say these words. My 29 year old Brother, Luke, has been fighting cancer for months. He is following necessary protocols, and although he is progressing, for which we are grateful, there is still a long road ahead. The good news is that he is tough and young, and I believe in my heart that he will not only survive, but thrive.

While Luke works for a company that is holding his job and provides insurance coverage, he has been struggling financially to make ends meet and pay the copays.

My family and I are doing all we can to help support him during this time, although I realized we needed to ask for help to ease the overall financial stress. He will be getting back to work as soon as his body allows, but we are hoping to buy him some time to relieve his stress so that he can heal properly.

My brother is fighting for his life, and we are doing what we can to help him get through this.  We appreciate any amount, small or large, to help us defray some of the medical costs and daily expenses. If you can not donate, please consider sharing this message with your friends and loved ones.

On behalf of my brother and my entire family, we thank you from truly grateful hearts.
