Rene's Fight Against Stage 4 Lymphoma Cancer

Donation protected
My name is Rene Vargas, and I am a 37-year-old man who has been battling non-Hodgkin lymphoma cancer for the past 5 months.

In March 2023, I was diagnosed with a rare form of tumor growing in my stomach the size of a volleyball. After a biopsy, I was initially misdiagnosed with another type of cancer, but a second biopsy revealed that I actually had non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

My cancer treatment has been challenging, and I have lost over 120 pounds in 3 months. I also have a stomach perforation that has been encapsulated by the tumor, and doctors are concerned that the perforation could tear open as the tumor shrinks.

Despite the challenges I have faced, I am determined to fight my cancer. I have a 7-year-old son named Cruz, and I want to be there for him for many years to come.

Unfortunately, the treatments I have received so far have not been working. I have recently learned about stem cell treatments in Mexico, which offer me new hope. However, the cost of these treatments is significant, and I need your help.

I am launching this crowdfunding campaign to raise money to cover the cost of stem cell treatments in Mexico. I am also seeking help with my medical bills and travel expenses.

That's why I am asking for your help. Any donation, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated. Your donation could literally save my life.
