Support Christian's Battle Against Gastric Cancer

Donation protected
My name is Carina, and I’m fundraising for my husband, Christian—a loving partner, a devoted father to our 3-year-old son, and one of the strongest souls I’ve ever known.

In June 2025, Christian was diagnosed with poorly differentiated gastric cancer that has already spread to his lymph nodes. He is only 27 years old. What began as unexplained stomach pain quickly turned into a life-changing fight for survival. He is waiting to undergo aggressive chemotherapy with plans for major surgery and further treatment ahead.

Christian has lost a dangerous amount of weight, struggles to eat, and battles constant pain. Despite everything, he still finds the strength to be present for our son and for me. But we are now facing an overwhelming financial and emotional burden.

We are asking for help with:

Medical bills not covered by insurance

Nutritional support and home care

Transportation to and from treatments

Time off work so I can care for him full time

If you’re able to donate, share, or send prayers—we are endlessly grateful. Every dollar brings us closer to stability, and every act of kindness gives Christian more strength to keep going.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
— Carina, Christian & our son
