This Entire Fraternity Stopped Shaving To Honor Their Brother Who Is Battling Cancer

“Tough times don’t last, tough people do.”




This is Brian Levitas. On October 29, Brian, a junior at Indiana University, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma.



When Brian’s fraternity brothers learned he had cancer, they dropped everything they were doing, skipped class, and rallied around their brother.



With Movember just days away, the guys decided to put down their razors and join the no-shave November movement in honor of their friend. They decided they would set a goal to raise $500.



Just days later, they had raised over $57,000 for the Lymphoma Research Foundation.

1. That's too cool.

I had stage 2 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma last year, including a spinal tumor.. I don't know what particular 'type' Brian has, but having gotten very good care I am at the moment cancer free and the prognosis is very good. "Knock on wood."
I found the leukemia and lymphoma society to be a fine organization to help and assist people with this disease.
