Todd and I had the awesome opportunity to help out in a fundraiser for our friend/cousin, Clint Layton. I'm sure you've all heard a story about someone with cancer and the medical costs that one can incur because of the illness and the pricey procedures. Clint is no exception and it's been frustrating for him and his family because they have had to jump through so many hoops to receive insurance coverage and care. Clint recently had to have a bone marrow transplant that was around $400,000-and that's WITH insurance. Crazy huh? As friends and family we planned a huge fundraising event in Clint's honor. We invited residents of Davis County to participate in a 3 on 3 soccer tournament and Viewmont High School alumni game. We had many sponsors and companies donate money and prizes and at the end of the day, we were able to raise close to $30,000 for Clint and his family. Clint unfortunately was unable to attend the event because he was in the hospital and he is doing well and he was released today and is now at home with his beautiful wife and two daughters. We love you Clint! Keep fighting buddy!
Am glad to hear that Clint is doing well at home. He's lucky to have such a loving and supportive family! Hope all is well!
