Hey everyone, I am Anthony's God-mom (Dana), and part of the cancer support team for Anthony.

Anthony "Big Ant" Allen was unexpectedly diagnosed with Stage 4, Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma on March 11, 2026. He has already started chemotherapy and will have a heavy, hard fight ahead of him. We are trusting in God and only accepting victory as an outcome! For God did not give us a spirit of fear but of love, and of power, and of sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We are raising money for his medical expenses to relieve as much financial burden as cancer treatments bring.

We are hosting a benefit on Sunday, April 12, 2026 in Springfield, IL (more info to come) and could use assistance with volunteers, donations, and planning. If anyone is available to help with this please reach out to me (Dana). Thank you.
