Derek, age 33, was diagnosed with a grade 4 diffuse hemispheric glioma back in October 2024. It is a very aggressive malignant brain tumor. His prognosis is very poor. It has completely paralyzed his left side. Derek was once a very happy healthy vibrant young man. Loving and active father. He and his wife married in February 2024. We have a 3-year-old daughter, his first and only child. Derek is a proud employee and working his way up to the top was the goal until this all happened. Now he cannot even lift his daughter.
Stella’s Wish Foundation has provided Derek with a VISA gift card for a nice dinner out with his wife.
