Earlier this year, Drew was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney disease, and despite making changes to his diet and lifestyle, his condition progressed to stage 5 renal failure. In early April, he underwent surgery to place a port for dialysis, but complications led to a second surgery just a few days ago. Now, Drew is preparing to start dialysis at home with Susan’s help, and he’s grateful for the chance to be surrounded by family during this difficult time.

The funds raised here will help Drew and his family with whatever they need most—whether it’s food for his three very hungry teenagers, medical bills, supplies for his treatment, or whatever they feel necessary. Your support will give them comfort and flexibility as they navigate this challenging journey together.

If you know Drew and Susan, you know that getting approval for this fundraiser was not easy. Susan didn’t think it was “necessary,” but I told her we all want to show Drew the same love and support he’s always shown to BCS families. Even now, Drew continues to coach and support others, negotiating surgery dates around baseball games. Please consider donating, sharing, or sending words of encouragement to help Drew and his family. Your kindness will mean the world to them.
