Help Mason with his recovery from Crohn's Disease

Mason is an amazing kid with a bright future and needs your help.  He has been very sick recently and his family would be so grateful for anything you can do to support his treatment and recovery. 

After experiencing some very painful and frightening symptoms, he was sent to Pittsburgh Children's Hospital, where they performed tests and found that he was covered from the top of his esophagus through his intestines with ulcers. It was diagnosed as a severe Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. He lost 33 pounds in 19 days and was sent from one doctor's appointment to the next. His grandma has had to leave her job to be with him. Once he gets healthy enough to come home, he will have to travel to Pittsburgh for his IV meds every four weeks. Until then, he remains on a feeding tube for a few weeks at the least, as he cannot keep food down on his own. The funds raised will go directly towards his medical bills and the cost of transportation for him and his family to Pittsburgh Children's Hospital.
