CARSON was recently re-diagnosed with Gleason 9 advanced prostate cancer which was originally treated at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in HOUSTON, TX. Doctors in CHARLESTON, SC have started a second regimen of Chemotherapy. Chemotherapy, surgery and radiation treatments have left a slew of medical bills including $7,000 a month for his Chemo drug. Fortunately his insurance covers 80% of basic medical needs however specialty drugs such as chemo are not covered, requiring personal funding. 100% of any donation will go toward immediate and future medical bills and alternative homeopathic treatments.

CARSON and his family are hoping to raise enough money so he may return to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center for further treatment.
