I am Frankie, a 16 year old son , brother , nephew & grandson . I went to the hospital last week with a cough and problems breathing, after days of tests and staying in the hospital I received diagnosis of Hodgkin’s lymphoma , I am now facing a long and scary journey back to health, this is going to be a lot for me and my family in every way to go through , we need all the support we can get at this time to help us better focus on what really matters, getting me back to healthy and cancer free already the support and love of everyone we know is hugely appreciated , any help is appreciated beyond words.

UPDATE - as of Monday 4/18/26 is :

“, frank got to come home for a few days. He is in high spirits all things considered. He already has a twice daily routine if having to give him steroids to keep swelling down on his cancer and cleaning and clearing his picc lines with salien. He goes back in Tuesday for a bone biopsy we are hoping is negative. Thursday He has hit pet scan. And Friday he gets readmitted for 8 days for his first round of chemo. . He will be in the hospital once a month for 8 days for chemo and will have to go in for a check up every Tuesday. Depending on how the cancer reacts it will be a 6 to 7 month process. With 2 months of steroids to try to get him back up to normal size after that.“
