Kevin Blecha Medical Expenses

Kevin was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called GIST (Gastrointestinal Stroma Tumor) in the fall of 2018. After taking a targeted chemotherapy medication to shrink the tumor, he was able to have surgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX in September, 2020 to remove the tumor.

 

The tumor was removed, but unfortunately 2 months later, returned in a more aggressive form.

 

At this point in time, it is Kevin’s wish to return to Houston, where his mother, Jean, daughter Kiersten, and three grandchildren live.

 

He and his wife, Hyon Suk Shin, are leaving Oahu for Houston on 10/23/21 and the current plan is to get Kevin immediately evaluated at MD Anderson for any further medical treatments available.

 

His sons Chris (23) and Andrew (22) are both on Oahu. Andrew is now active duty Army stationed at Schofield Barracks.

 

Kevin also has 3 step-children, Hannah, Jay and Jeffrey who have been a big support to him in recent weeks.

 

Kevins family extends into the Military. He is a combat veteran with over 20 years of service.

 

Money raised will go to Kevin's wife for any expenses needed.
