September 10th, 2016 was a hard day to swallow. It was the day I found out I had stomach cancer. I'm not one that normally would ask for help in a public display like this but the fact is I really want to beat this thing and I know I can't do it alone. It's time to swallow my pride and ask for help. My family and close friends are by my side for emotional support but the fact is I never imagined the medical bills adding up so rapidly. I'm making headway on making my $6,000 deductible but I have a ways to go. I am asking for help to insure I can undergo surgery to remove the tumor. After several weeks of chemo and radiation the surgery is the most critical part in my survival chances to beat this thing. Whatever you can give will make a difference and is sincerely appreciated. I just want to live and when I'm in remission I will celebrate with each one of you. Thank you for reading. Thank you for giving.

Blessings,
Matt
