Big Brother Cremation/memorial

Donation protected
Sitting here next to my brother in pain fighting this battle the thoughts just won't stops running in my head what's next and will he live another day. After all of this chemotherapy is done if his body will accept and it kills the cancer cells he will then have to be sent out to Seattle or Houston depending on who will be able  to perform the stem transplant. First before the transplant can take place they must find a donor that matches which can also push back this process.  I am not the type to ask for any help knowing everyone has struggles financially and if I had enough to help I my own I would give my all. He was currently working for the VA helping Veterans find jobs when getting out of the service and attending New Mexico State University to further his career working as a elementary school teacher.  This is for my big brother that I love and hate to witness him fight such a battle for life. My brother Michael Anthony Rios is a Navy Veteran who is now battling leukemia and lymphoma cancer and has been out of school and work currently fighting to live another day in the hospital with complications during his first round of chemotherapy. With being out of work and the system being so slow to help his rent and bills don't stop and needs some help. When he gets out the cost of living, eating healthy, transportation to the doctor is what bothers myself the most and stress on. He would be pissed if he knew I was doing this for him because he's not the type to ask for help but I know if he knew people came together for him he would much appreciate and help one less worry while battling the toughest time of his life. Thank you for caring and even if not able to help financially please send prayers and love his way!!!
