Serving in the military is one of the best ways to serve your country. One of the those soldiers is now needing his country. We are asking for your help. Army sergeant  Shay Hopkin has been diagnosed with Kidney Cancer. He was stationed in Germany until the doctors detected the cancer. He was transferred to the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Bethesda, MD. He is need of a caregiver while under going his cancer treatment. This will take the family members away from their jobs and income to care for him. We want to make him as comfortable as possible during the holidays and so him how much he means to all us. The holiday season is here and  we are asking your help in coming together to assist him and his family through these very difficult times. We appreciate all of your help in helping Army Sergeant Shay Hopkin. Thank You to all, and Stay Safe.

I will continue to post updates on his health and progress. Thank you to all you that have helped in time of so much uncertainty and total disbelief. Please feel free to share this post with your family and friends. May peace find us all.
