Campaign Story
On January 10th 2019, Lee was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor (Glioma). Since then he has been fighting this tumor in Baltimore Maryland at John Hopkins. Recovering from surgery on January 16th to remove the brain tumor and surgery on January 24th to remove an infection that had developed. His road to recovery and fight is just starting and having the support of family and friends are going to provide the best therapy. This fund has been set up to help reduce the financial stress for Lee and Stephanie in this time of need and for everyone that has felt helpless and want to help support the family in the fight against brain cancer. His future upcoming battle will be to regain function and strength along with going through chemotherapy and radiation. Any donation will help make a big impact for the future expenses. Thank you for your love, support, and sharing of this page as well as donations. As such a big Philadelphia Eagles fan as Lee is I hope he will again soar like an Eagle to Victory!
With Love,
Chelsea Harris (the daughter-in-law to a wonderful and loving father-in-law)
