Nat says: As many of yall know I have been laid low by a rare cancer called a sarcoma. What I thought was a prolonged lung infection turned out to be much more sinister, with growths round my heart and pulmonary artery and my lungs. On February 9th I entered the ER & was bedrid in the hospital until February 25th, when I was finally released as an outpatient a week after my first round of chemotherapy.

I am lucky to report I am headed to OSU to

continue my treatment with the sarcoma team there, not too far from my home in nky.

Doctors of varying humanity had given me days, or weeks to live, and I was told I wouldn’t make it to March, but I live by my odds and not there’s. I’m feelin better than I have since I entered the facility, and am hoping to continue my next step into my recovery and my future as a survivor. Though I feel better, I still feel terrible, and I know it’s just the start still of a hard, long road. I am taking things day by day and conserving and building the energy I need to overcome this affliction. I refuse to speak from the past tense, because there is beauty and life in the struggle I am currently fighting, and I will overcome this. I do not know how long this fight will take, but I know so long as my heart beats I will overcome this.

I have with great reluctance begun a GoFundMe to help with the medical expenses that this fight will be accruing, and I appreciate anybody who can contribute something. THIS IS MY ONLY GOFUNDME, and nobody else has permission to be raising money on my behalf under any other: https://gofund.me/300931ca

Lastly I want to forward all the love I have received since this affliction has taken up my time. Particularly my friends and family in Kentucky, but also this whole world round. I am not so active on Facebook but seeing the outpouring of all y’all to my current predicament…thank you can barely touch my appreciation. I am lucky to be part of such an incredible musical community, and if I can overcome this I look forward to doing my part in return.

With what energy I got, I am trying to respond in turn to all y’all who have thrown your well wishes, reminisces, encouragements, and prayers, it might just take some some time. My energy fluctuates between fatigue and downright exhaustion, but I’m feeling more confident then ever. If not for a cure, than for the potential of more time on this good side where the green grass grows.

Thank you again.
