As of this month, my brother Weslee has been diagnosed with a rare, aggressive form of cancer called Burkitt’s lymphoma- presenting as a large tumor in his head and smaller tumors throughout his body. He is currently staying at Stanford undergoing treatments almost daily. He will be robbed of most of his senior year and due to hospital restrictions has been separated from his friends and most his family. Those who are allowed to visit him drive up and down every other day between our home here in the valley and Stanford. He will not be home for months. We have found ourselves stretched financially due to those of us who work needing to take time off, and the costs of driving and food. Our number one priority though is Weslee and helping him be comfortable through this horrible ordeal. These funds will go into not only replenishing what we’re using due to costs of travel and stay, but to also keep Weslee’s spirits high.
