Rally for Ryan
Donation protected
On December 27th 2023 Ryan Delong, a 32 year old local millwright, went into the Saint John Regional Hospital with a headache and tingling sensations on one side of his body. After significant testing and scans doctor's determined he had a massive brain tumor. As a result, he was scheduled for emergency brain surgery on January 2nd 2024, only 6 short days after receiving this devastating news.
Fortunately, Ryan’s surgery on the 2nd was very successful, however there are still a lot of unknowns but will still be expected to undergo Chemo and radiation in the coming weeks/months. Ryan has a finance, Brittany, and two young boys who he supports. With this diagnosis comes a long road to recovery for this young family to work through.
The expectation is Ryan will be out of work for an undetermined amount of time and will be needing significant care from his finance, Brittany. With no time to prepare for something as significant as this we are hoping our community, friends and family of Ryan and Brittany come together and assist with this impossible road more comfortable for them.
Thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated during this unpredictable time.
