Medical Fund: Help Save Chinweze’s life

Donation protected
Thank you for being here. In June 2019, Chiweze started feeling aches and swelling of the upper 2/3 of his face. In August of that same year, he was diagnosed of Maxillary Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma and was referred to Medical Center for adequate Chemo-radiation. This is what a brilliant 13 years old with a very bright future ahead of him had to go through. As painful as that was for him and his family, and the costs incurred for his treatments left us all worried and scared for his life. Chinweze started to improve, we were thankful to God for moments that seemed hopeful, a full recovery in sight. Chinweze ended his Chemo-radiation in June 2020 which in total lasted for 9 months.
Little did we know that we have not won the fight for his life. In September 2020, a large mass right lateral/upper neck manifested, and he was diagnosed of Sclerosis Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma. We are in shock and saddened by how much Chinweze has had to go through at now 14 years old. Chinweze’s last Chemo was about $12,500 which presented some struggles. His doctors have now advised to fly Chinweze to the United States for proper treatment with cost estimated to be about $38,461, and his chemo dose have increased. Chinweze’s health is deteriorating by the day and in need of urgent help.
Chinweze wants to be an aerospace engineer when he grows up, he has been reported severally to be one of the brightest and hardworking students in his class. Chinweze has huge dreams for himself and his family and we know him to be a fighter. Please help save Chinweze’s life.
