Known for his crime, noir, and horror fiction as well as a few other things, Tom Piccirilli and his family are now dealing with a huge medical problem. Tom annouced last Saturday that he has a brain tumor that would be operated on today. After that was done, Tom would be facing radiation and chemoptherapy in the coming weeks.
As we know from direct personal experience, cancer surgery and treatment is brutally expensive even with insurance. As bad as Sandi's situation was, cancer was not sitting in her brain like it is with Tom. We didn't face what Tom is facing now. Tom's niece, Shannon, has set up a donation page at http://www.indiegogo.com/TomPiccirilli if you would like to make a donation.
More ways to help support Tom and his family can be found at http://litreactor.com/news/help-tom-piccirilli-beat-cancer including the news that his e publisher, Crossroads Press, is giving him 100 percent of all royalties till the end of the year.
If you can help, please do so.
