Hello, my name is Christopher Jones. A little over 5 years ago I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. During this time I have undergone radiation therapy and have taken countless medications. I've had my ups and downs during the treatment process, as many others have. Through it all though, I have strived to maintain my life. To not let this disease take over and to remain the person that my family and friends have always known. Things have taken a turn however. My diagnosis has worsened. I no longer have the physical stamina to continue working for extended periods and my memory and comprehension of things have faltered on several occasions. To make matters worse the years of medical expenses have taken their toll on not just mine but also my family's finances. I ask not for myself but for my parents as the costs that will soon be left on them when my time has come. If the goal set is exceeded I have requested that all overflow is donated to the Ivy Foundation for Brain Cancer. For those of you who know me personally you know how hard it is for me to ask for help. Thank you all for your support over the years.
