Hi, my name is Chase Young. I’m 22 years old. I’ve recently been diagnosed with MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndrome), a serious blood disorder that is considered a form of pre-leukemia.

This diagnosis has completely turned my world upside down. I’m currently undergoing chemotherapy and irradiation treatment to prepare for a life-saving stem cell transplant in the near future. While I’m doing everything I can to stay strong physically and mentally, the emotional and financial toll has been overwhelming.

I’ve had to put my life on hold to focus on fighting this illness — and as you can imagine, the medical bills, transportation to and from treatments, and basic living expenses have quickly added up. I’m asking for support to help cover the costs that come with this journey so I can focus on healing and getting back to living a full life.

If you’re able to donate, share, or simply send some words of encouragement, it would mean the world to me. Every bit of support brings me one step closer to recovery and hope.
