#TeamAndy - Stand UP for Andy

Welcome to the Team Ohana ~ Help Andy Fight Fundraising Campaign!

On May 29, 2015 Andy was diagnosed with a form of brain cancer called Anaplastic Astrocytoma.  

What is Anaplastic Astrocytoma — An anaplastic astrocytoma is a grade III tumor.  These rare tumors require more aggressive treatment than benign pilocytic astrocytoma.

Anaplastic Astrocytomas tend to have tentacle-like projections that grow into surrounding tissue, making them difficult to completely remove during surgery.

Andy is in for the fight of his life and we have rallied around him to make sure that he has the support he needs physically and emotionally, however, we are starting a campain to help raise the funds necessary to aid in his recovery and his treatments!  

For those of you who know Andy personally, you know that he will not give up and he will fight with all he's got!  He's got way too many things left to accomplish and we are sure as hell going to help him make that happen!

For those who don't personally know Andy ... Who is Andy Cohen?  He is a friend, mentor, father, husband, son, brother, leader, business owner, creator, fabricator, author, teacher, patriot and so much more.

At first glance he might be intimidating as he eyes you over his bi-focal glasses, you might think he's sizing you up, and you are probably right.

He is no nonsense and direct in his opinion and assessment of character.  He is someone WE will always want on our side.  So WE stand with him during this battle for his life.

We have started this campaign to raise funds to aid in his treatments and recovery.  As we all know insurance will only cover so much and our focus is to take the burden off Andy and Kristen so that they can focus on his well being.

In the future he faces treatments of Chemotherapy and Radiation.  We want to ensure that he stays focused on them and not on the mounting medical costs.

We thank you for your love and support!
