My brother & best friend, John aka “JP”, is 41 years old and has been diagnosed with rare and aggressive form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). We are raising money to assist with insurance deductibles, copayments for treatment at Dana Farber in Boston Massachusetts and to support cost of living
while receiving chemotherapy & radiation.

This is JP’s story leading up to his cancer diagnosis: For 29 months, JP has been living in pain, both physically and psychologically, because of a rash that was initially diagnosed in 2021 "allergic dermatitis". The prescription creams/ointments didn't stop the pain nor stop the rash from spreading.

In February 2023, John was informed he had "plaque psoriasis". He started receiving light therapy treatments with minimal effect. The rash continued to spread and covered almost 40% of his body.

It wasn't until John was seen at by Dr. Nambudiri at the Brigham Dermatology Center that biopsies were taken which indicated that John has a rare CTCL which he was informed on Friday, November 24th, 2023.

Thank you for reading his story. This page will be updated of John’s progress with his fight for recovery. Any amount and every share makes a difference! Thank you!
