Help support Nate with his Leukemia battle
Donation protected
Updates below:
I’m raising support to help my little brother Nathan Bolt with his leukemia battle. The specific form is called B-cell ALL which is very rare in adults. He was hit with this diagnosis in August of 2023. Doctors are hopeful that it’s a treatable and curable form of the disease. He started the necessary protocols that were designed for this cancer shortly after diagnosis. Recently he’s encountered some setbacks due to its rapid ability to grow. This has delayed 2 more treatments (CAR-T & Stem Cell Replacement) that are needed for him to be on his path to being deemed cured. All funds raised will go to his living expenses for the additional months he will be in housing near the cancer center. The initial game plan was to be done by April, however treatments are being pushed out several more months. I want to free his mind of worry about where the funds are coming from to support his living costs so that he can receive the treatments necessary. Keep him in your prayers and I appreciate any support!
*Update 2/8: We can't thank everyone enough over these last couple days. The latest update for Nathan is five days of intense radiation beginning 2/12. There is some confidence this will decrease the mass inside his pelvic bone to then begin a CAR-T transplant (and then hopefully a Stem Cell transplant)
*Update 2/9: The outpour of donations and support has been overwhelming and I cannot thank everyone enough for supporting my brother and his wife through this journey. We have increased the limit as a buffer for living costs in addition to medical/treatment expenses not covered by insurance. The stem cell transplant is the goal he is working towards but even after the transplant, complications and recovery will last 6-12 months. Donations not covering living costs will go towards these lovely surprise medical bills.
*UPDATE 3/5: (Justin Bolt/Brother)
It’s been an eventful 10-12 days up until this point. Chemotherapy, radiation, and Car-T therapy were all administered in a short period of time. The effects have taken a toll on Nathan. We’ll just say that it’s been a rough couple weeks. I had the opportunity to visit him for 4 days and offer some support in person. So grateful to spend some time with him. Family/friends have been an amazing support system for Nate cheering him on during the entire process. I had the opportunity to speak to him this evening after being down for a few days. He’s exhausted but rebounding. He’s grateful for the outpouring of support and everyone’s thoughts and prayers!


Thanks, Justin Bolt
