Hi all,

Hello friends and family. 

After many doctors' visits and exams, 2 external biopsies and an invasive internal surgical biopsy, CT scan, and PET scan, the results have come back this week and I have been diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer.  My best option after having had consultations with my ENT, Radiologist, and Oncologist is that I proceed to UCLA for throat surgery to have cancer removed as soon as possible.  This will be followed up with Radiation and Chemotherapy.

As much as it pains me to do this, I need to ask for financial help.  My financial need is immediate.  Anything you could do to help would be much appreciated!  Prayers are appreciated as well. 

Thank you all and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

Mark
