Take Down Cancer

My name is Courtney and I am starting a fundraiser for the Cooley family. Their son Antonio has been diagnosed with Paratesticular Rhabdomyosarcoma. So far he has had two surgeries one to remove the malignant mass found and a RPLND (this looks for microscopic spread of the cancer). Once he has fully recovered from surgery then his Chemotherapy/Radiation treatment plan will begin.
 
They have a long hard journey ahead of them and I would like to raise enough money to help them pay for living expenses for up to a year. This will be one less stress they have to worry about while taking on all challenges they will be faced with in making sure Antonio gets the best care needed and takes down cancer!
 
Jay and Ashley have four children and have always been hard working parents! Jay works a full time job plus a part time job and Ashley works full time to support their family. During this time with appointments, surgery, and care for Antonio, work will inevitably have to take the back seat at times in order for them to be there for him. This means less money coming in and more expenses accruing from medical bills, travel for appointments, and care for Antonio.
 
Any amount of money donated will be greatly appreciated by their family as they have always been the family to help others in need and understand how important it is.
