Raising money for Matthew Strempke

Matthew Needs You!

Be sure to read the Updates - There is GOOD NEWS!

This is Matthew (my baby brother) and his wife Kristin. They have a 6 year old son and are expecting a new baby soon!

January 8, 2010 Matthew went in for what we "thought" would be hernia surgery...instead they found a 7 inch cancerous tumor. They're calling it Aggressive Lymphoma with Burkitt's Characteristics.

 
Matthew's hair is almost gone already :(

Matthew will not be able to work considering his diagnosis and intensive treatments. Matthew and Kristin welcomed their new baby girl February 7, 2010.  

They could use help with some incidental expenses. The hospital is 2 hours from home, so gas for Kristin to visit will add up fast. Kristin is back to work part time. Morgan has Autism, so keeping him on a regular schedule is what's best for him, but he sure is missing his daddy...he is also upset with Matthew for "leaving" him :(

Other bills will be coming in too: House payment next month, utilities, groceries, etc.
