Please help Art Gandara with his medical expenses!

Donation protected
Our friend Art recently received devastating news that a 10.6 cm renal mass tumor was found on his right kidney. You can imagine the shock! He had never been in any kind of pain nor did he know about this before. The Urologist told him, "this type of tumor is silent and grows one to two cms/ per year, so, maybe it started growing back in 2015, origins unknown." He went on to say that the only way to remedy this situation is by performing what is called a radical nephrectomy (full surgical removal of the right kidney). Art felt terrible and very confused, and is looking at extremely expensive medical bills. He is always been super healthy and currently doesn't have health insurance, so this type of surgery is around $30K.  Art is happily married with five children and four little grand-daughters. 

Please consider donating any amount to help Art and his family as they navigate through this tough journey ahead!
