Drew and his family could use our help!

In the winter of 2009 Andrew Elwood was first diagnosed with Stage 3c Melanoma from a routine pediatrician check-up. Now on his sixth diagnosis ( with 8 additional scattered Stage 4 Melonama cranial tumors occupying all lobes of the brain ) they are too many for radiation treatment and he is undergoing chemotherapy treatment making him gravely ill.  Andrew’s mom passed away from pancreatic cancer when he was younger so he is now living with his aunt and uncle in Corbett. He is suffering ( among the many side effects ) from neurological symptoms that endanger his safety, so Drew’s uncle has left work to care for him full time.

Please consider making a donation to help Drew and his family meet their financial obligations and help them afford treatments that have become necessary to battle the side effect of this chemo, but that are not covered by insurance. Thank you for your love, support, and generosity. I am certain even the smallest contribution or generosity would bring truly infinite appreciation and gratitude.
