<div>Hi, my name is Abby, and I’m fundraising for my little brother, Nathan, who was diagnosed with brain cancer 8 years ago. He has battled the cancer and gone through 3 brain surgeries, 2 rounds of radiation, and 1 round of chemo so far. Most recently in October 2024, after his last brain surgery, he opted out of chemo treatment. Therefore, the cancer has returned and is spreading aggressively. He has just celebrated his 30th birthday on June 30, and life for him has significantly changed in the past few weeks. What should be days filled with fun and laughter are now filled with uncertainty.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our family is doing everything we can to support him emotionally, physically, and spiritually—but the homecare duties have become overwhelming on our family and we are in need of more assistance with the ongoing challenges and complications. We’re facing a mountain that we simply can’t climb alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for your help to ease some of the burden so we can focus on what matters most: helping Nathan feel loved and taken care of. Donations will be used to help us provide a CNA or home health nurse daily, who will assist our family with basic care needs and support throughout this challenging time. Funds will also be used to purchase other items needed for his care that is not covered by insurance &amp; hospice.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’re unable to donate, we completely understand. Your prayers and shares are just as valuable. Every bit of love and support lifts our spirits and gives us hope.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you give, share, or simply keep us in your thoughts, we are deeply grateful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love,
</div>
<div>Abby

<div>Nathan, the youngest of 6 children, is passionate about life. He loves skateboarding and editing skateboarding videos. He enjoys building custom bikes and spending time with his family. At the age of 22, while amidst the struggle of everyday, had a seizure which brought our family together with the wonderful staff at St Mary's Hospital. There, he would undergo a CAT scan and MRI, which would reveal the 4cm growth on his Left frontal lobe (cancerous brain tumor).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our mother has lived a selfless life of dedication to the raising of her children. She now heads up the logistical challenge of research and acquisition of the best care possible for my brother. Join our family in the quest as we trust God for the finances and healing hands to provide Nathan with the health and quality of life he deserves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your prayers and support are greatly appreciated!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you and God Bless!!
