Support Zach's Battle Against Testicular Cancer

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Dana and I am doing a GoFundMe to help raise funds for my brother, Zach. He went to the hospital on June 13th for pain in his lower back and swelling in his groin and left testicle. After doing a couple of CAT scans and drawing blood, they have diagnosed him with testicular cancer. He was in the hospital for 7 days and on June 28th, they did an emergency surgery to remove his left testicle since it was getting so swollen. They did more CAT scans and found out that the cancer spread to his spine and stomach, causing a teratoma tumor. It has wrapped around one of his kidneys and is pressing against his L2 vertebrae, which is what's causing all of his back pain. He had a follow-up appointment on July 23rd after his surgery, and now he has to get a port put into his chest. Once the port is in, he has to do 4 rounds of chemotherapy to kill the cancer in his stomach and hopefully shrink the teratoma tumor as much as it can so that once chemo treatment is over, he has to go to Indiana for a major surgery to get the tumor removed from his stomach.

He has been taken off work till December 10th, but that is also a big maybe because it all depends on how quickly everything happens. This does not include the time off that he will need for his surgery on his stomach.

With all of this going on right now, any donations to him would be greatly appreciated, and help out with his current bills and upcoming medical bills.

Thank you so much for your time and generosity, please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
