Help Matteo Fight Infant Brain Tumor

Hi everyone. For those of you who do not know me, my name is Natasha and my son Matteo was diagnosed with a malignant infantile ganglioma tumor at just 6 months old. During his first surgery the surgeon was able to remove the whole tumor. At that time they were pretty certain that there would be no recurrence. However, Matteo recently had an MRI done that showed otherwise. This MRI showed regrowth of the tumor which is now being diagnosed to a high grade Infant-

type hemispheric glioma. Matteo has to have another brain surgery that will be done in Denver with the surgeon he had before. As a single mother who will be missing work durning the surgery and recovery process I am reaching out for help. Im asking for donations to help with travel costs, food, and bills during the time I will be away from work. Please keep my son in your prayers. My Matteo is a mamas boy who has the most contagious laugh, a wild, and loving personality. As a mother I’m terrified, but I know my son’s strength and he is a fighter! Thank you

I’ve created this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, Sarah and James, who are enduring every parent’s worst nightmare — the loss of their beloved son, Leo.

We’re heartbroken to share that our dear friend Alex passed away far too soon. His light, his laughter, his incredible spirit — they touched so many, and his absence is deeply felt.

Hi everyone — Angela here, writing on behalf of Matthew (for now). On December 6th, completely out of the blue, Matthew suffered a severe stroke.
