Hi family and friends as many of you know, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 testicular choriocarcinoma in November 2024. I had gallbladder surgery, but unfortunately, a large tumor was found during the surgery. After many tests, the doctors found malignant tumors that had spread to my brain, liver, kidneys, and lungs. This cancer is a rare, highly aggressive, and fast-growing germ cell tumor that originates in the testicles.

I immediately started VIP chemotherapy in December. This chemotherapy consisted of 4 cycles, with each cycle requiring five days in the hospital. After chemotherapy, my numbers started going down, and the tumors were shrinking, so everything was looking good.

Unfortunately, a month ago, I went in for a blood draw, and the numbers had drastically increased again. I am currently undergoing chemotherapy again, which consists of 2 cycles.

After this chemotherapy, the next step is for me to go to UCSF for a high-dose chemo plus stem cell transplant. I will be starting treatment on July 12, 2025. This will be for 2 cycles, each requiring me to stay in San Francisco for a month.

These donations will go towards:

Medical bills and treatments

Travel expenses, co-pays

Other bills

We thank you all for your prayers and support!

If you are able to give financially, we are deeply grateful. Every donation, no matter the amount, is greatly appreciated. If you can’t give financially, I ask if you can please keep me in your prayers. I have a great medical team and continue to believe in miracles. I know there isn’t anything impossible for God.

Thank you.
