<div>Hi, my name is Marissa, and I’m Eli Viszolay’s sister. In November 2025, Eli discovered, through an MRI, a tumor in his lower abdomen and back. Three weeks later, our family learned the heartbreaking news that it is stage 3 cancer in the form of a non-seminoma germ-cell tumor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Eli will began chemotherapy in mid-December, with treatment continuing through March 26.  Fast forward to June, he is starting another chapter of TCIE treatment (High-dose chemotherapy followed by a stem cell transplant).   This means he will be in and out of the hospital for the next six months (December 2026). Followed by this treatment is a high chance of surgery and the inability to work until June 2027, is what we are anticipating. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> If you know Eli, you know how hard it will be for him to stay out of the ocean.  You also know that the ocean is not just where he feels most alive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are raising money to help Eli cover his bills during treatment and to make up for any of the months he cannot work. Any amount, big or small, will make a meaningful difference and will help with everyday essentials like groceries and food while he focuses on healing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If financial support isn’t possible, we would be so grateful if you’d consider signing up for the Meal Train we’ve started or sending cards, drawings etc. with words of encouragement (message me for address) Your kindness, love, and encouragement mean more than we can express. Thank you for standing with our family and with my beloved brother during this incredibly difficult time.
