Hi everyone!

My dad is a lifelong, huge UNC basketball fan, and earlier this year, he was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Unfortunately, we don’t know how much time we have left with him, and this upcoming basketball season may be his last.

I’m hoping to find a way to create a special memories and experiences for him this season, and give him some joy during an incredibly difficult time.

Since he’s had to stop working and our family is navigating medical expenses, funds are unfortunately very tight. I was hoping this community might have advice, connections, or leads on tickets (grants or programs for terminally ill fans, etc.) or any special experiences that might be possible.

I’m not expecting anything for free, just hoping someone might know of an opportunity or point me in the right direction. We live in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area, if that’s helpful!

To be clear, I’m not buying or selling anything, and this is not a fundraising post. I’m simply a daughter trying to make some special memories with her dad, and I thought this community might be a good place to ask given how much UNC basketball means to him, and to all of us.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. It means a lot.

Go Heels! 🩵🤍
