Slide number 1

My little brother, lifetime best friend, was diagnosed with stage 4 renal cell carcinoma on February 11, 2020 at the young age of 35. He had some back pain for over 2 years before they found the two masses on his kidney and adrenal gland. He lost his battle on Oct 3, 2022, just two weeks before his 38th birthday. He was the bestest friend and brother a girl could ever have. He is missed daily by all who knew and loved him!

My mom Donna was a warrior. She fought metastatic kidney cancer for many years while taking care of her mother before her mother passed. She always had a good spirit about her diagnosis, never complained when she had to get chemo and radiation. She passed away March 7th 2022 at the age of 64. My mom will always be my hero.

My mother was diagnosed with stage four renal cancer before Christmas in ’22. Although it has flipped her world upsidedown, I am so proud of my mother’s resilience and strength. I love her and miracles happen every day so I’m hoping for one for her.
