Kent, loving father of 3, has been diagnosed with Primary CNS Lymphoma. We need your help to get him the treatment he needs to fight this!

Our beautiful friend Jess is reeling from the news that her amazing, gentle and kind husband, Kent, has been diagnosed with Primary CNS Lymphoma. Just days after his 31st birthday, he complained of headaches and blurred vision and ultimately a biopsy found two tumors in his brain, each a little over an inch in size. He now is looking at about 26 rounds of intensive chemo every 2 weeks and each time will involve a hospital stay away from his babies for 5 consecutive days, then home again for 9-10 days. And so it will continue.
Unfortunately, the treatment is not funded and Kent’s health insurance will only cover a small portion. Kent is unable to work and support his family and Jess is now carrying the load. They have a LONG way to go and we are calling on friends, family and strangers alike, with a big heart, to give anything they can to help support the Atacador family.
Kent and Jess live in Manila with their 3 children; Manu, Cash and Flossy Please help them fight this. No donation is too small. Every little bit counts.
Jess is one of our oldest & dearest friends and we want to do everything we can to help raise the funds to cover her husband Kent’s treatment in the Phillipines.
We love you Jess and Kent.
