Let’s ensure this Tough Cookie gets the Medical Treatment he needs!

Beloved Husband, Father of 3 young children, Son, Brother, and dear friend, Alejandro “Alex” Flores, 36-years-young, was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic cancer and needs our support!

Overnight, Alex’s life changed. He went to the ER for back pain and 48 hours later returned with even more severe back pain only to find out he had cancer spreading fast. With a strong will and positive mindset, he completed his first round of chemotherapy during his two week stay at the hospital. One tough cookie indeed!

But that was only step one. And step one was costly because all the treatment Alex received during his 2-week hospital stay, will need to be paid 100% out-of-pocket, the cost of which is jaw-dropping. (Insurance coverage thankfully begins June 1.)

Now, Alex needs radiation treatment, possible surgery, and multiple rounds of chemotherapy. To receive this treatment, he will need to pay some very high deductibles going forward.

And that’s where we come in! Together, we can make it happen! ¡Somos familia (We’re family) in some way or another! Proceeds raised here will go 100% towards paying for Alex’s much-needed radiation treatment, second round of chemotherapy, and the medical bills from May. Thank you for your support and generosity! It really takes a village!

In the face of all of these trials, Alex has remained strong and positive, with a will and determination to get in, get out, and get better for his family. He’s one tough cookie! Let’s support Alex with this fight!
