Stand by Eric!

I'm going to make this short and sweet... Just a few short weeks ago, Eric went to the Emergency Room sensing something was wrong. After some bloodwork and other tests, we found out he has a tumor in his left testicle. It has also spread to a lymph node on the vena cava to his kidney. A surgery is scheduled for August 1st to remove the testicle and test and stage the tumor. He is looking at a round of chemotherapy and more than likely another surgery to remove the lymph node. He is uninsured. The doctor wants prepayment for the procedures, not to mention missed work. I know the amount is high but I have no idea what to start with, that may not even be enough. He hates to ask for help but I'm going ahead and setting this up because I know that he would help people if he could. Anything is so appreciated and would relieve the financial stress of an extremely scary situation.
