Together for Nano: Funeral Support Needed

Nano's Family & Friends from near and far... this is Adrian, Nano's long time best friend and basically Sister. Nano & I met when I was in 7th grade and he was in 5th grade. We have had over 35 years of memories together and I've been through thick and thin with him. I know SOOOO many of you have as well. Every friend of his is like family to him, to know Nano is to love Nano!! I know that he has created memories with each and every one of you, Nano built himself a legacy of friends and it's just amazing to see how many people he has touched throughout his 46 years so far.

I am creating this Go Fund Me because of his condition and the help that he could use right now during this difficult time. Nano status as of today May 10, 2025, he is no longer awake, he had been talking all week after his stroke and eating on his own and surprising the doctors who were using the word Miracle a lot. As of yesterday he fell back into an unconscious state due to his brain swelling getting slightly bigger. He is comfortable right now, on some pain meds, resting well and listening to some Madonna that I have playing next to his bed. :) His love for Madonna is bar none.

If Nano makes another miraculous recovery I know he could use these funds for medical bills and cost of living since he will for the first time ever not be able to return to work. But if he takes a turn for the worst and arrangements will need to be made for his eternal rest, these funds will greatly be appreciated for his funeral costs. Either way if all of you could find it in your hearts to donate even the smallest amount, it would be wonderful.

Writing this to everyone is very difficult for me, I pray more than ever that he will stay with us to use these funds for his living expenses. #Nanostrong

UPDATE - 5/11/2025

Nano is now in hospice care and as hopeful as we have been this entire time, reality is that he most likely won't make it too much longer. I'm so sorry for this grim update and my heart is broken for him, for all of his friends, for his family and most of all, for the fact that he won't be here much longer putting a smile on everyones face!! He is one of the most genuine people I know and he has always been REAL.

Please feel free to leave messages on his Facebook page, to leave pictures and stories of how you met Nano or anything you would like his family and friends to know. All of your stories are being read and heard and the memories are great to hear!
