Help Matthew Fight and Win his battle with Cancer!

Hi. My name is Beth Connine and I am looking for everyone's help! My son Matthew was diagnosed with Stage 2 Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma on March 14th, 2024. We spent 8 long days in the hospital, having many different tests and procedures completed before receiving his final diagnosis.

Matthew is 14 years old and is in 9th grade at Holland Patent High School. Matthew has a very bright future ahead of him. He has a passion for anything related to space! He has dreams of becoming an Astrophysicist! Aside from having a passion for space, he also loves building Legos.

We are asking for the help of our friends, family and community. Matthew is receiving treatment at the Upstate University Cancer Center in Syracuse, NY, about an hour from home. We will be making weekly trips for treatment. Any help provided will assist with gas, tolls and food for our trips to Syracuse, as well as loss of wages to make the trips. In addition, there is the out-of-pocket cost for his treatment and follow up care.
