“Fraze Gang guitarist and Wife shaving their heads for best friend with cancer”

Mike

I am sharing this for a good friend of the show. And that is Derek McGowan, guitarist for Canadian rockers ‘Fraze Gang’

Please read:

We are asking for your support to help our very close friend, of 25 years, Mike Box. For the second time in two years, Mike is battling a rare form of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. Mike is married and has two children; Hayden, 9 & Carson, 6.  As you may imagine, the battle that Mike and his family are facing everyday, has not only been a strain on Mike physically & emotionally, however it has greatly affected their financial situation as well.  Over the last two years, Mike has been unable to work his regular shifts at Ford Motor Company, and the extensive chemo treatments leave him home bound, and off work for months.  Although Ford has a very good benefit plan, Mike’s medications alone, are costing him over two thousand dollars PER WEEK!

ENOUGH SAID!!!

As you may be aware, there is a fundraising event for Mike, at the Milton Italian Club, on Saturday, June 22nd.  Live, at this event, we will both be shaving our heads, in support of Mike, and we are currently accepting pledges.  Please know that ANY amount that you are able to contribute would be so greatly appreciated.  Please find below several options on how you can contribute.
