Help George Kick Cancer's Ass

Donation protected
Cancer sucks! Whether you know George or not, you likely know someone who has had the unfortunate run-in with cancer.  You also likely know how incredibly difficult it can be without help from people who care about you.  Now, if you KNOW George, you know he bends over backwards for anyone, any time. He's the first one to offer a helping hand, but he's the last one to ask for it.  As his friends, we decided to ask for him.

To give you a little background on George.  He was born and raised in a tight community in northern WI. Everyone knows George and if you ask, they will likely have a funny story about a great memory with "Little Georgie Gunderson."  George raised 2 wonderful sons, is a volunteer fireman and has a long history of helping everyone and anyone. George is a respected Realtor and member of the community, serving on various boards and committees.  But most of all, George is known for just being a heck of a guy and genuine person. 

George was recently diagnosed with a very rare cancer called Chordoma.  It's a rare type of cancer that occurs along the spine and extends into the surrounding tissue.  In George's case, the cancer is in his spine and throat and has begun to affect his breathing, which is how he found out he has cancer.  This is not an easy surgery, nor is it an easy recovery.  After the invasive surgery, George will spend months recovering.  In George's line of work as a Realtor, there is no sick pay, disability coverage or paid time off.  He relies solely on commission, so you can imagine the financial stress and worry this causes.  We want George to be focusing on his health and recovery and not how he is going to pay bills.  Every little bit helps.  Please consider a donation to help George in these next few months.
