We are reaching out to those who have asked what they can do to help this amazing man Frank Marcogliese.  As many of you know he was diagnosed with a very rare brain tumor about 3 months ago. The tumor known as:( PPTID) is very large and is located in the center of his brain, it has also spread through the spinal fluid into the spine, where there are tumors as well.  It took 2 different procedures and many scans, tests, etc. to finally diagnosis this condition.

Frank and his wife Samantha have had to travel to Los Angeles, Ca.,  which is a 4 hour drive one-way several times in the past 2 months for medical treatment, hospital stays and appointments. It has been a very costly and stressful time for them in many ways!!

They will begin a long process of treatment next week for Frank at UCLA and will have to move temporarily to Los Angeles, where Frank will have to undergo 7 weeks of radiation treament on his brain and spine. Following those treatments he will have a break for his body to heal some and then will be able to come back home to Clovis to begin a year long treatment of chemotherapy.

Frankie has not been able to work for the past 2 months nor will he be able to for the next several months if not longer. If you know him at all then you know how difficult that is for him, as he absolutely loves his job, co-workers and his clients. He is very social, loves people and is the nicest man you will ever know! 

He is a very proud and commited man to his family, friends, clients and his community. He would  never expect a handout or even think of asking for a helping hand. But I believe in a situation such as this, stress is the last thing he needs. Helping Frank and his family in a time of financial and medical crisis is the least we can do for a man who has always been so loving, generous, kind and full of life!!  This gift will help ease some stress, help them to find a comfortable place in L.A. for the next 7 weeks, while he seeks treatment,

If you would like to donate to #friendsforfrankie please give what you can, if you cannot make a donation then please say a prayer for him. We believe prayers are the best medicine and the ultimate healer. Please share this story with others so we can make this happen and surprise him with a gift of love before he has to leave his family, friends, and community, where his support system is, to begin treatment to save his life!!

When 2 or more are in agreeance great things can come to past, please pray for his treatment, his mind body and soul and a speedy recovery!! Thank you for your love, prayers and support!! 
         The Family & Friends of our dear "FRANKIE"
