Fund Raiser for Cancer Diagnosis

Donation protected
I was recently diagnosed with a high grade 3 brain tumor called a glioma and had to have surgery immediately.   Follow up radiation and chemotherapy are needed, as well as MRIs every 3 months. The road to recovery will take roughly a year to finish treating the cancer. We have incurred several thousands of dollars in expenses with much more to come, and are asking for financial assistance to help pay for medical bills. Any help would be appreciated no matter how little it is as times are rough right now.  

I am a Lebanese American, and belong to the Orthodox Christian church. I've been married 17 years and we have a daughter in high school.   The tumor presented itself on Pascha (Orthodox Easter) in the form of seizures and stroke-like symptoms.  I spent 8 days in the hospital, had a biopsy, and was told 2 weeks later that it was a grade 3 glioma and growing rapidly.  The surgery had to be done very quickly before the tumor reached grade 4, the highest grade, at which the tumor could double in size within a week.  

The entire experience has been very stressful for our family.  This is the beginning of a long battle and we are grateful for prayers and financial contributions.  The testing, procedures, treatments, medications, and road trips are very expensive so far, and my wife is missing work in order to take care of me.
