Hi my name is Nathaniel Burrell. On September 4th, 2017 at the age of 18 – Having just graduated Dexter High School in Dexter, Michigan and after attending two classes at Washtenaw Community College I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. I have spent the last 17 + months dealing with cancer which would include nearly two months in the hospital in order to; initially save my life, I have had bone marrow aspirations, CT scans, PET scans, MRIs, several surgeries and seemingly countless, all day, Chemotherapy and Radiation visits. I have been employed since the age of 16 at Meijer Grocery Store on Jackson Road in Ann Arbor, MI but have been unable to work since my diagnosis.
Recently I was informed that the chemotherapy and radiation are not going to be adequate to save my life and the best that I might hope for is a short extension of my life unless I seek treatment outside of the United States.
All the money raised in this campaign will be used to cover expenses for both myself and my father, Michael Burrell (US Army Veteran) to go to Hannover, Germany for the treatments that the doctors believe could save my life. Expenses covered will include but are not limited to airfare and local travel, lodging, food, medicine and to pay for my cancer treatment which will be entirely out of pocket.
Prayers and donations are needed. We know that we cannot do this alone. Would you please consider being an active part in saving my life? I need the support of others like you. Thank you for caring enough about me to read my story.
