Help Tayden Fight His Brain Tumor Battle

Donation protected
Many of you are aware that my son, Tayden, 11 y/o, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive brain tumor on February 7, 2024. Specifically, his cancer is called Medulloblastoma. The past year has been difficult for not only him, his mom, Victoria Nguyen, and myself, but also for our family and friends. Tayden has been an absolute fighter through this all. He has kept a positive attitude, has continued to play certain sports, and unbelievably, he passed the 5th grade. We can’t thank the people enough who have provided prayers and support over the past 18 months. The love is truly felt.

Although we have mostly kept our situation close to the vest, we are now ready to share his status because he needs your help. His fight is far from over. Over the past several months, several new spots have developed in Tayden’s brain. This means he needs aggressive treatment to fight off the cancer. He is currently in Houston, TX, receiving proton radiation to his entire brain and spine. Last week was his first week, so he has an additional 5 weeks remaining. Once that is complete, he will return to New Orleans for a short break, and then he will begin chemotherapy. Chemo will last 7-12 months.

We are asking those that are able to, to consider donating towards his cause. 100% of proceeds will go towards paying for his rapidly increasing medical bills to make sure he gets the treatments he so desperately needs.
