Help Craig Battle Liver Disease and Rebuild His Life
Hi, my name is Christine Parker], and I’m starting this fundraiser on behalf of my son Craig Gladieux, who is bravely fighting a life-altering medical journey.
At just 16 years old, Craig was diagnosed with NASH (Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis)—a serious autoimmune liver disease that causes inflammation and damage without alcohol being a factor. Over the years, this condition has unfortunately progressed into cirrhosis, which now severely impacts his daily life.
What He’s Facing
Due to the advancement of his disease, Craig is now dealing with:
Extreme fatigue that makes even simple tasks exhausting
Memory issues linked to the liver disease
Chronic stomach issues and ongoing discomfort
The devastating reality of having to leave his job because of his health
He is awaiting evaluation at the Cleveland Clinic, where specialists will determine his eligibility for placement on a liver transplant list—his next hope at a healthier future.
Why We Need Your Help
Without a steady income, he is struggling to keep up with basic living expenses, medical costs, and travel for essential treatments. He has applied for disability, but as many of you know, that process takes time—and time is something we don’t have the luxury of right now.
I’m humbly asking for your support to help relieve the financial stress so he can focus on fighting this illness and preparing for what may be a long transplant journey ahead.
How Your Donation Helps
Your contribution will go directly toward:
Rent and utilities
Groceries and transportation
Out-of-pocket medical expenses and prescriptions
Travel to and from the Cleveland Clinic
Future transplant-related costs
Even if you’re unable to donate, please share this page. Every bit of support—financial or emotional—means the world to our family right now.
We are deeply grateful for your kindness, your prayers, and your willingness to help carry us through this challenging chapter.
Thank you so much. ❤️
