Help Eric fight & beat Melanoma

Donation protected
Hi friends and family,

Please help U.S. Olympian Eric Lindroth Beat Cancer!

Devastating news:  Eric has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma.

Eric has battled some of the fiercest athletes in the world and triumphed.  He is a multi-time Olympian, National Champion, and has most recently been inducted into the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame. Eric is also an inductee of the U.S. Water Polo Hall of Fame and the International Water Polo Hall of Fame. Since winning the Olympic Bronze medal in 1972, he continues to excel at water polo playing internationally at the master’s level.

Eric has a caring heart, always putting others first. He is a beloved husband, father, son, brother, and uncle, and is also a valued co-worker and a tremendous friend.  He is quiet but with a quick wit; reserved and intentional with his words.

Eric has loved playing his heart out with his teammates for his school and country. Now he is in it for the greatest WIN he’s ever needed. Eric is battling for his life with an adversary he’s not sure he can defeat.  There is hope! But the financial burden such a fight and diagnosis bring causes incredible stress. He will lose time at work due to physical weakness and illness, while also having to commute frequently to UCLA Medical Center, despite living in San Diego. He is in need of financial assistance. This will be a long, costly fight for Eric and his family.

His loving, selfless, humble, and patient manner has touched many lives, and we are asking for your support as he proceeds to battle this awful disease. If you are able to help alleviate some of Eric’s financial concerns, please make a donation. But most importantly, please keep Eric in your thoughts and prayers as he fights this battle.

Eric and his family appreciate your prayers and kindness more than words can express.
