Friend battling cancer
Donation protected
This is for Brandon AKA Oki. Our friendship story started about 20 years ago on EBay when Brandon bought phat pants (raver pants) from me. We met in person to do the exchange and hung out for a bit and laughed and joked around. You see him and instantly want to smile and hug him.
Fast forward to present day. We have kept in touch on FB , and I saw him marry a beautiful woman in 2011. He and his wife have a sweet little one together, and 6 children total between them.
Not long ago, he posted about finding out he has stage 4 lung cancer, and somehow that post wasn’t a pity party. He still remained very positive. In May, both he and his wife had their cars demolished after a drunk driver hit both parked cars, and now their dog has a lemon sized growth that needs to be removed. When it rains, it pours. And sometimes it pours for people that don’t deserve it. And somehow, this guy stays positive. Still. He and his family could potentially be homeless with all of the bills piling up and not being able to work due to his cancer, but he still stays strong. And humble. Even after he recently found the growth in one lung has grown quite a bit. And now he has other lymph spots that have appeared.
His 40th bday is in a few months, and I thought the least I could do was try to take some stress off his shoulders. He deserves it. I can't imagine worrying about if tomorrow will even come, along with worrying about bills and if my family will be okay if something happens. Please help me rally around this wonderful family! He has never asked for handouts, and they deserve a little help!
