Support Chuck's Battle Against Cancer

Hi, my name is Sara Moghadam and I am a very close friend of the Ganim family.

Last summer, Khalil Ganim (or better known as Chuck by most) was diagnosed with stage 4 cirrhosis of the liver and has been in the process of getting on the liver transplant list. Last month, while undergoing treatment for his liver and a series of tests, Chuck was diagnosed with stage 4 Large Cell Lymphoma. The doctors have told him that this cancer is often very curable but it will be a very tough and challenging journey ahead as he begins chemotherapy treatment. From there it will be another 2 years before he is able to be on the transplant list for a new liver for his cirrhosis.

A lot of people know Chuck through his bar, Kirby's Sports Bar. Kirby's was a place that Chuck took pride in and set out to create an establishment that brings people together to create memories centered around good times, laughter and friendships. While in the process of battling cirrhosis and before being diagnosed with cancer, Chuck lost his bar last fall due to financial hardships.

Chuck has an incredible family and group of friends that are an amazing support system and he is grateful for the love and encouragement he has received the past year and a half as he has courageously battled his health conditions and the loss of his business. However, due to his cancer treatments, other medical appointments, being denied medical disability and the loss of his income due to his business, I am humbly reaching out for financial support on behalf of the family.

All donations will directly be going to Chuck's treatment and living expenses.

Chuck and his family are deeply grateful for your support, love and prayers during this difficult time.
