Hello Everyone,

Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Thomas Schleider and have been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, and it affects about 1 in 8 men during their lifetime. This was an unexpected diagnosis in my life. I am reaching out to seek funds to cover my out-of-pocket expenses that I will incur through therapy. I am still relatively young and want to live a long, happy life. As a veteran of the United States Air Force, I am including the Airmen's Creed, which concludes with "I will not fail," and this journey of killing the enemy within my body, I will not falter. I am a Warrior! Thank you to ALL that will contribute to my cause.

I am an American Airman.

I am a warrior.

I have answered my nation's call.

I am an American Airman.

My mission is to fly, fight, and win.

I am faithful to a proud heritage,

A tradition of honor,

And a legacy of valor.

I am an American Airman,

Guardian of freedom and justice,

My nation's sword and shield,

Its sentry and avenger.

I defend my country with my life.

I will never falter,

And I will not fail.

I WILL NOT FAIL IN MY FIGHT
