Hello friends and family of Dennis,

I write this with a heavy yet hopeful heart about my brother. As many of you know, he has the biggest heart when it comes to others and yet it is that very organ that is working against him. After being hospitalized in Las Vegas just over a week ago needing bypass surgery, his body was not ready and his kidneys have struggled required dialysis. Further testing revealed he would needs an LVAD which serves as a heart pump while he waits for a potential heart transplant. He fortunately was moved from Las Vegas to Los Angeles this week in the hopes of stabilization to further assess his progress.

Needless to say, his bills are already building up and he will need an immense level of support and care. It is always difficult to ask for help in any form during times of hardship and there are a number of "fundraisers" posted everyday for trivial desires and optional trips. This is not one of those. This is to ensure that a father, son, brother, cousin, and friend to many knows that his best years are ahead of him. Thank you in advance for considering making a gift that is meaningful for you! We are forever grateful.
