Support Kevin Hanson's Third Battle with Cancer

Donation protected
We are reaching out on behalf of our dear friend Kevin Hanson, 56. He is fighting a tough battle with cancer for the third time in 5 years.

Kevin lives in Alfred, Maine with his wife Kandy. They have 3 wonderful and supportive children, Meaghan, Kasey, and Ben. They are also blessed with 4 beautiful grandchildren, Chase, Blake, Avery, and Emerson. Kevin is a Freemason belonging to Lodge #55 in Alfred, Maine. He is also a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Aries 4392, in Waterboro, Maine.

In September of 2020, Kevin was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Follicular Lymphoma. After receiving R/CHOP treatment, he went into remission for 18 months.

In 2022, Kevin was told the cancer returned and had transformed into Large-B Cell cancer. He was once again treated with the R/CHOP procedure and went into remission but only for 15 months.

Unfortunately, Kevin is once again in the fight against cancer. He recently started a treatment plan called RICE. An MRI scan was taken after Kevin complained about headaches. The scan found a large mass behind his eye, so the treatment was changed to R/D HAPP, a treatment that can only be administered in a hospital setting. Kevin is now getting ready for his 3rd treatment at Maine Medical Center. Additionally, Kevin has had several appointments at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts to prepare his body for CAR T Therapy.

Due to his upcoming treatment plan, he has greatly reduced his work schedule. During the CAR T treatment, there will be a long stay in Boston which comes with overwhelming emotional, physical, and financial challenges.

As Kevin reduces his work schedule and prepares for an extended stay in Boston, we invite you to join us in supporting him on this journey, empowering him to focus on recovery and wellness. Your donation will help alleviate the emotional, physical, and financial burdens Kevin faces, surrounding him with love, kindness, and generosity. Let us come together to celebrate Kevin's indomitable spirit and uplift him with our collective support.

Your donation of any amount is greatly appreciated.

Thank you. And please keep Kevin in your prayers.
