Fighting For Mike: A Cancer Story
SK Robinson who commented in this blog wrote me in an email:
I have been working extremely hard on trying to get the word out about my brother-in-law who is fighting Stage 4 Cancer right now. We all still have hope for him and are not giving up because he has such a positive attitude. If anyone can beat this, he can.
We are trying to raise funds to help pay for his cancer treatments because they are so expensive. For the type of cancer he has, the chemo treatment he needs is still not approved by the FDA; therefore, the insurance won’t cover it. My BIL & his wife have to pay $3,000 for each treatment, and he will have four of these treatments over the next two months. If they are working and results are good, he will have more.
I started the blog and put a Paypal donation button on each post to try and raise some funds for him. Our family is also collecting and recycling empty ink cartridges and old cell phones, turning them in and getting some money for them that way.
If you’d like to know the whole story and help by donating, visit the blog Fighting for Mike or send an email to fightformike@hotmail.com.

I was just informed of this website yesterday, and I think its a fabulous idea.
My thoughts are with the family - and all families who are going through this right now.
