Make a Cancer Survivor's Dream Come True

Donation protected


Hey everyone, it's friendly neighborhood brain cancer warrior here!! I hope your doing well!

Many of you know my story but for those who dont, in 2019 I was officially diagnosed with oligodendroglioma stage two brain cancer. Unfortunately it can not be removed because it's it left frontal temporal lobe and to close to very sensitive areas I did a year of CHEMOTHERAPY treatment that seemed to have slowed the growth but unfortunately here recently it decided rear is ugly head and grow some more,along side having having alot more seizure (luckily after a second anti seizure med was added those seem to be under control) so the doc decided it's time for RADIATION.

I'm actually not here for help medical bill wise... Luckily disability has most of that covered...but...I'm hoping that you can help make a dream come true... Truly!! An absolute dream of mine since I was tean (13 to be exact) and I'm 39 now. To see the Greatest metal ever! METALLICA!!!!! LIVE !!!!

I have been fortunate enough to see many great bands in my time but the band that I have always missed out, mainly due to my tour's in Iraq, was the best of the all METALLICA. They are they only band that I have one of their album art symbols tattooed on me!

METALLICA's music has got me through so many hard times as teenager, as returning soldier coming home from war and now dealing with my cancer! I owe a huge thank you to them!!!






So imagine my surprise when I seen that they where going to be touring again here in the USA and that they had venue's close to me on the east coast!!!! And to add to that....that the ticket sales start the exact same day that I start RADIATION??? Got me a sign that it's meant for me to go to this right?

This is where I need your help to make this dream come true and make it the most memorable experience ever. Please if nothing else just share and pass along this to everyone you can. I know it's not a desperate need like most of these gofunds are, but being on disability Iife isn't easy....and this would be impossible. Regardless if your able to help or not, thank you for taking the time to read this!

If anyone is struggling mentally and needs someone to talk to please feel free to reach out to me I will always responded! Have a great day everyone!!!











All funds will be used to get me hopefully a very nice package ticket where I can personally meet the members of the band, have a chat with them and get autographs and photos!!!!

I would the opportunity to thank the band in person for helping me through all my darkness
