In the summer of 2022, our ten year old son Yehuda was diagnosed with lymphoma.

He had to stop going to summer camp and start going to the hospital. While in the hospital and at home between chemo, volunteers from Chai Lifeline were always ready to help.

When Yehuda wanted fireworks they made a party. They sent volunteers to decorate his hospital room. When Yehuda had a craving for pizza, ribs, or steak they found someone to pick up exactly what he needed and drive it downtown to Hopkins.

Chai Lifeline found young men and women to take our other children out shopping, hiking, and for ice cream so they didn't lose out on childhood while I was taking care of Yehuda.

Thank God, Yehuda is on the road to a full recovery, and he is looking forward so much to going to Camp Simcha this summer.

Nothing can truly make up for a child having cancer, and losing their normal innocent existence. But Chai Lifeline and Camp Simcha is the closest thing.

 I'm riding this summer to try to show my appreciation for chai lifeline, and to help pay for my son to attend camp Simcha. Sure they are helping over 6000 families, but for us it's personal.

All donations are 100% tax-deductible. Please use the donate button now.

On behalf of our beloved son, plus all the children and families of Chai Lifeline, thank you for your support.

Thank you !
Kalman Akiva (Josh), Yehuda and family
