The Martin Family in Medical Crisis

My name is Kristen Stewart and I am a friend and co-worker of Amy Kratzar, Gena Martin’s sister.

Gena and Bryan packed up their home in Huntley, Il 2 years ago and moved to Winter Garden, Florida to live their dream.

Last month, Bryan began to experience numbness in his foot that eventually traveled up his leg. A mass was found on his brain and after brain surgery to remove as much of the mass as possible, the biopsy results came back positive for a very aggressive glioblastoma. Obviously, this was a devastating and shocking diagnosis for the family.

Bryan has to wait 1-2 weeks for brain to fully heal before chemo/radiation can start. Radiation is 5x per week 15 min at a time for 6 weeks. Chemo will be given orally.

Gena is a fantastic stay at home mom to their two sons, Liam(14) and Grayson(10). It will be challenging for Gena to balance her husband’s medical needs with the needs of the boys, particularly since they live so far away from family.

We are hoping to raise money to lighten the financial burden on this family so that Bryan can focus less on providing for his family and more on kicking cancer’s booty!
