Ivan's Cancer Fund
Donation protected
Thank you for visiting our page. My name is Maria Diaz-Reyes. I would like to share my brother's story and ask for your support. For the past six years Ivan has worked for Walgreens Pharmacy, assisting patients, enjoying the work, and his time with coworkers. He has also donated his time and resources to different charities and groups.
On March 27, 2015, my brother Ivan was admitted to the hospital. He was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. The cancer had spread to his lungs and scalp. An emergency surgical procedure was done to remove the tumor and chemotherapy was immediately started. Over the past ten months he has received three different rounds of chemo. His doctors gave my brother the best chemo they had but unfortunately it did not remove all the cancer from his body. His doctor referred him to another hospital in Chicago and both decided that the best option for him was to seek chemo treatment at Indianapolis. According to the doctors my Brother Ivan will need an aggressive high dose chemo and a stem cell transplant.
As Ivan's sister I know that he is going through a very difficult time. As, for my family, it changed our lives and our hearts are broken but our faith keeps us stronger than ever. Our team of family, friends, doctors, and nurses have given Ivan unlimited support and encouragement through this journey.
Although, he has had good and bad days, Ivan has remained resilient throughout. He has not been able to return to work since March 2015 due to all the chemo and hospital stays. I am asking to find it in your hearts to donate and help Ivan relieve some financial burden. These donations will help to pay for hotel and medical bills. If your unable to donate, you can help him by sharing his page with family and friends. Please keep Ivan in your prayers and share this page with friends, and family. No words can explain what this support means to us. We are so grateful. Thank you and God Bless.
