Kraig is a full-time, touring musician. After 30 years on the road, Kraig has had to put a halt on performing in order to concentrate 100% on healing. Without his livelihood, the cost of healthcare and living expenses face Kraig with huge financial strain. We are asking for your support.
 
For the past 2 years, Kraig has been struggling with chronic hoarseness and sore throat. In the last 10 months, this has developed into a much more serious condition involving muscles in the face and throat causing issues with speech and swallowing. Several neurologists have told us the symptoms point to ALS (bulbar onset Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). We are looking into every curable solution for Kraig’s condition.
 
If you would like to donate to help Kraig get through this, please visit his gofundme page:
 
We couldn’t be more grateful for your support. Please share this fundraising campaign with others.
 
We are also graciously accepting all prayers and soul intentions.
