Every day in my career I meet individuals and families whose lives are changed in an instant by Critical Illnesses and Disabilities. One diagnosis that continues to impact so many families is brain tumors - emotionally, physically and financially. I have seen firsthand how devastating these diagnosis can be for both the patient and their family.

Recently, a dear friend of mine was diagnosed and survived a brain tumor. A fluke situation caused him to go in for an eye exam. After several tests later, he found out that it was in fact a much more serious issue. Luckily, with his wife at his side he was able to combat a horrible situation and break through the other side with not only the strength to help himself, but also the strength to help others through support groups.

If you are able to support the cause, any donation - big or small- would mean a great deal. Thank you for your kindness and support ❤️

Make time for the things you love. They matter more than we sometimes realize.
