Help Dylan Gilbert Fight the Tough Fight

Donation protected
It started with a relentless cough and heaviness in Dylan's chest, and when it  got worse, an X-ray revealed a large mass in his chest.  When meeting with the surgeon in Hershey who would be performing the surgery, Ron and Wendy were told they were admitting Dylan immediately.  The biopsy revealed devastating news:  Dylan had cancer.  While cancer is not new to our family, it's never struck a family member so young.  Dylan started chemotherapy right away and when the swelling goes down, they will use a scope to go in to determine the exact type of cancer and develop a treatment plan.  

The trips to Hershey have already taken a financial toll on the family.  Ron and Wendy have missed several days of work which are unpaid.  Unfortunately, they have to go back to work soon while Dylan is cared for in Hershey.  Only parents and grandparents are permitted to visit, which is very difficult on everyone, including his large family of aunts, uncles and cousins. 

Funds raised will be used to help Dylan continue making his car payments and car insurance, and for traveling expenses and medical bills.  Please consider making a donation.  You can also support the family with your thoughts and prayers.  Cards could be sent to:
