Hey, I’m Jared, and for the better part of the last 10 years of my life, I’ve had the privilege of having Mike as my best friend. A kind of friendship that lasts forever. Mike is strong and resilient and has always worked hard to be a better version of himself for him and for his daughter, Valerie. Mike, Chan man, or Chandra, is one of the most amazing friends I could have ever hoped for.

Mike, being a single dad, life hasn’t always been kind to him. Life has a way of keeping you on your toes. Mike has recently encountered some heath complications that have kept him from standing on his own 10 toes. He has undergone spinal surgery, and the road to recovery is going to be tough. Not sure what life will look like with this surgery, but I’m hoping and praying for a speedy recovery.

With this surgery being neurological in nature, I’m not sure how long he will be without work. All I know is I want to help Mike in a time when it’s hard for him to help himself. All I can hope is that I and many others around me can help surround him with love, support, and prayers for Mike, his daughter, and his family. If it so moves you, please help him and his daughter financially recover from the health challenges that he’s facing. I implore you to help in any regard that you can. Big or small, financially or by praying for him! All is greatly appreciated from the bottom of my heart.
