Dear family and friends, 

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who has generously contributed to David's cause. Your support and kindness have been truly incredible during this challenging time. 

We wanted to provide you with an update on David's condition: unfortunately, he has been diagnosed with stage 4 adenocarcinoma in the lungs. This news has spurred us to reassess our fundraising goals. Our primary focus now is ensuring that David can pursue the most aggressive and effective treatment without the burden of financial worries. 

As such, we have adjusted our goal amount to accommodate the increased costs associated with his treatment. Your continued support means the world to us, and we are immensely grateful for your ongoing generosity and solidarity in this journey.

Thanks again.

Dear Family and Friends,

We hope this message finds everyone well. We come to you today as a united family facing a challenge we never anticipated. This month, as our dear cousin David celebrates his 36th birthday, he is also courageously confronting a rare and aggressive cancer diagnosis. At the moment, it has metastasized to other areas of his body and is currently still undergoing various tests.

David, a devoted father to his precious two-year-old son, Ezra, loving partner to Alyssa, and beloved figure in so many lives, now stands at the beginning of a challenging journey. His condition demands immediate and aggressive treatment, and the emotional and financial toll on our family is substantial. As a united front, we are reaching out to all of you, our cherished family and friends, to join us in supporting David and Alyssa during this difficult time.

As David embarks on this fight, we are launching this GoFundMe campaign to help alleviate the overwhelming burden of medical expenses. Our goal is to enable David and his partner Alyssa to focus on his health and recovery without the added weight of financial stress.

The funds we raise together will contribute to vital treatments, medical procedures, medications, and assist with the day-to-day expenses that come with battling a serious illness. As Ezra approaches his second birthday, our collective aim is to secure a future where this young family can continue to share countless birthdays, laughter, and precious moments together.

Your support, no matter the amount, will make a significant impact on David's journey to recovery. Together, we can help ease the financial strain on this young family, allowing David to focus on regaining his health and strength to be there for Alyssa and his son.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign with your network. Your kindness and generosity will not only aid David in his fight but will also serve as a reminder that in times of adversity, we are surrounded by a community that cares.

Thank you, from the depths of our hearts, for being part of David's support system. Your love, prayers, and contributions mean more to us than words can express.
