GoFundMe - Michael Desing (Game Designer) Has Terminal Cancer

I've followed Michael Desing and his various works, from The Splintered Realms to Army Ants and beyond, for over a decade. I've always enjoyed Michael's releases, even if I've never had an opportunity to run them.

Both Rach and I are cancer survivors, and we've both lost family members to cancer. Although I can relate to what Michael and his family are going through, the enormity of what Michael and his family are facing is beyond anything I've personally dealt with.

If you can help Michael and his family during their time of need, please do so via the linked GoFundMe. If you can't, please spread the word. Tenkar

My friend of over 30 years, Michael T. Desing, has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. His prognosis is poor and will leave behind his wife, Mary, and teenage daughter, Grace.

If you know Michael, you know the kind of man he is: a devoted husband, a great father, and one of the most trustworthy, stand-up guys I’ve ever met. Among our circle of friends, I consider him the best of us.

Michael is also a passionate educator, gamer, and author. If you’re part of the tabletop roleplaying community, you may recognize his games, including Army Ants, Sentinels of Echo City, and his current project, Stalwart, which he continues to work on even in the face of this diagnosis.

Michael will soon begin chemotherapy to manage his pain. This fundraiser is to support Mary and Grace as they face not only the emotional toll but also the financial challenges of his illness and the loss of his income.

Please donate if you can, and if you're unable to, sharing this with others would help tremendously. Thank you for supporting Michael and his family during this difficult time.

(Your donations will be going directly to Michael, Mary and Grace.)
