Help me fight cancer
My best friend has cancer.
At the end of June 2009 Zach found a mass in his abdomen. Within the next few weeks and after a whirlwind of tests and appointments he was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer). After a lot of prayer and thought, he decided to go with the agreesive treatment of surgery followed by chemo.
Zach has already had one surgery, but the procedure did not go as expected. Over the past several months, he has been following an aggressive chemotherapy regime in preparation for an ambitious second surgery attempt.
Zach is 35 years old. He has been married to his wife, Prudence, for over 12 years and together they have two beautiful daughters–Kate, who is 4 years old, and Zoe, who is 2 years old. He is fighting for his life in way that inspires. Zach has shown a strength, a courage, and a determination that I don’t think I’d have in the same situation.
Zach played in my band, the Bad Habit, from the very beginning. Together, we have played shows all over the DC metro area, on the road, in the basement, and back in my (slightly ramshackle) apartment in Arlington. Zach was one of the first (of only two) people to read Crescent, before it was a book, before it was a podcast.
For the next six weeks, I’m going to be donating all of my profits from Crescent to the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation (http://www.cholangiocarcinoma.org/)
