Fight for Gray!

Hi there - this is Ed and Anna, Will's Best Friend and future Wife-To-Be reaching out about a dire situation that has quickly unraveled within the last month for the Hurds.
On Friday October 20th tragedy struck the Hurd household when they took their Dad in for a routine check-up after noticing a few 'forgetful' and 'clumsy' symptoms around the house.
Fast forward a few days later and it was determined Gray Hurd (Husband to Carrie Hurd, and Father to Will and Laura Hurd) has 13 tumors in his brain, swelling, and bleeding - compressing against his skull and impacting his cognitive, physical and mental abilities.
After 4 stressful weeks in the hospital taking biopsies, running tests, and coordinating with teams of doctors - Oncology confirmed Gray has Stage 4 Metastic Melanoma that has spread to the brain and will require sudden and immediate treatment. Surviving this sort of disease at this stage will require a miracle.
As it stands today, and after 4 weeks of fighting this aggressively growing cancer, Gray finds himself barely able to walk - taking on Whole Brain Radiation Treatment AND Chemotherapy simultaneously.
We love the Hurds, and we are sure so many of you do too, so we wanted to set this up for all of those who have reached out for additional ways to help.
Thank you,
Ed & Anna
