On Wednesday, June 24th 2026, Reilly suffered a seizure while at work. He was rushed to Beverly Hospital, where they found he had concerning lesions on his lungs, liver, and brain. This was further confirmed upon arriving at Brigham and Women's hospital in Boston, MA, where he was diagnosed with Stage IV primary lung cancer. The lesions have metastasized to his brain, spine, liver, and many other areas. Since then, he has spent almost two straight weeks in the hospital undergoing intense pain, tests, radiation, and bloodwork as they formulate a treatment plan for him.

We are all shocked, and very devastated by this news. If you know Reilly, you already know he is one of the brightest lights you'll ever encounter. He lives to create music and art for others, and has always put everyone else first. This is certainly going to be a battle, but I don't know anyone that has a better attitude and drive to keep creating for you all than Reilly.

The costs of his treatment, as well as his inability to work during it, will be overwhelmingly stressful. Medical care at this level (even with the best insurance) is astronomical, and our goal here is to ensure he is focusing entirely on his recovery, and not how he will pay for it.

Please help us fight this!
