Neil's Fight Against Cancer

Donation protected
If you know Neil, you know he's a dedicated father & husband, a great friend, and an awesome softball coach! He spends most evenings coaching the West Mifflin 10u team & the PA Renegades 10u team. Any girl who has ever played for him loves him. We all come from a very tight-knit softball family & we are 100% behind "Coach" Neil rooting him on. 

Neil found out last night, October 22, 2019, that a lump on his neck was in fact Stage 3 cancer.  He, along with his family & doctors, are determined to win this battle. For the first step, the tumor was removed via a full neck disectomy. He is currently recovering in the hospital anxiously awaiting the approval to go home.  The doctors set a course of 6 weeks of chemo & 6 weeks of radiation. While this is all necessary in order for Neil to beat this cancer, the financial strain is weighing on his mind. In a time where his only focus should be on getting healthy, as the sole provider for his family, he can't help but worry about household bills & medical expenses. He is expected to be out of work for at least 3 months. 

As Neil fights cancer, please consider helping in a way that will alleviate some of the financial worries by donating! His wife is also asking for all the prayers & positive vibes you can send! They want to share their appreciation for anyone who joins in Neil's fight.  Thank you for every dollar, every share, every prayer.
