Fellow camaro crazy co-worker with cancer.....

[Camaroresto]

Hi guys. I have a fellow co-woker just diagnosed with cancer. He has a mass in his lungs and heart. He had to go out on dissability and is going broke. He has two young daughters and a wife, who is a banker teller. I am trying to get a donation fund set up but need some help on how to do that people can donate via pay-pal and know it's for a legit cause and not a scam. He wants to be around for his family and of course to purchase a new camaro. If anyone has any experience with a thing like this please contact me. Thanks! -- Bryan

What kind of cancer does he have? I was diagnosed with lymphoma in June. I had a mass pushing into my right lung. I just finished treatment. My last scan was all clear, and I'm going to start radiation in a week.

[Camaroresto]

Same thing. They got it shrinking. He is gonna loose one lung regardless. They are just trying to get it small enough for surgery.

[Chris396]

Wow he must have a massive tumor. They don't usually do surgery when you have lymphoma. I hope he responds to the treatment.

[Camaroresto]

The mass is 9" x 11". It's big.

How about a little fund raising of some kind? It's close to Christmas (can I still say that) you know!

[Camaroresto]

my mistake, its not lymphoma its straight out lung cancer. And he is a non-smoker.

Bryan,
I would suggest you contact your bank (or the one where your friend's wife works). Often they can help you set up a trust fund for your friend's expenses, and will receive the donations. I bet they would donate the account and management fees.

I wish all the best for your friend and his loved ones.
