In January of 2011, David Grupa was diagnosed with cancer. Surgery was performed in February with the hopes that no further treatment would be needed. Unfortunately, subsequent scans showed some cancer was still present. Eventually a treatment plan was set and weeks of radiation began. Currently David is feeling well and awaiting the next scan.

While the events of the past 6 months can be summed up into a couple of sentences, the emotional and financial toll is not as easy to detail.

David’s friends can’t fight his cancer for him, but they have organized a benefit to help offset the overwhelming financial burden that comes with medical procedures.
