Henry Nguyen Family Fund
Donation protected
Henry was diagnosed with Gliobastoma (GBM) in March 2018. A loving husband and father who loves to go deep sea fishing, Henry is only 38 years old. He's married to my dear cousin, Connie, and they have two young children, Sarah (6) and Dylan (5).
GBM is terrible--it's the most aggressive form of brain cancer. You might recognize its name, as it is the same cancer that John McCain had. There's no cure yet.
It is heartbreaking to see this young, wonderful family take on a truly terrible cancer. Henry has undergone brain surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, physical therapy, and clinical trials. In the last month, doctors discovered another tumor in his spine. And in the last few days, he experienced a terrible stroke that has left him in a coma. Even with GBM's reputation as an aggressive cancer, Henry's neurologist finds Henry's case shockingly on the worst end.
Even before cancer entered their lives, Henry and Connie have always been kind and generous. They go the extra mile to help others, 110%. They've worked hard to build a loving, safe, and enriching life for their sweet kids, Sarah and Dylan. Connie's unwavering effort, day-to-day to care for Henry and the kids, is admirable.
Because of Henry's condition, and Connie's role as the primary caregiver, it's a challenge to keep up with financial obligations. Medical bills, not to mention general life expenses, are growing. This family fund is to help the Nguyen family through this extraordinarily tough time.
