My name is Brian Morgan.  My wife Dana and I have a son, Rhys Morgan. He is a beautiful, sweet, tough and smiley boy.  He has a long list of medical diagnoses since birth and a new found recessive genetic disorder called Coats Plus Syndrome, a form of leukodystrophy.  This involves calcifications in the brain matter which creates a cerebral palsy type of effect.  He can not sit, stand, walk, speak or do much for himself at all.  This being said, he is so very special and unique as are any other child in this world whether "typical" or challenged.  We have seen multiple specialists over the past 6 years to help us maintain his health and well being and have struggled, as he is not a "cut and dry" case.  With this syndrome the life expectancy has a varied range anywhere from 2-30 years.  We have full hope that we can create a better quality of life for him as we move forward in this world for him. As his advocates, we hope to seek world renowned specialists for this rare condition for help that we may not be aware of, or to be able to fundraise for research on this syndrome to help others in need in these types of cases.  To our knowledge there are only 40 known studied cases in the world!  We only hope through perseverance and love that we can make a difference for our one and only and maybe even for more studies and research in maintaining the syndrome and possibly finding a cure.  We of course do not want to turn our boy over for use as a guinea pig, but if there are options, we would love nothing but a fighting chance for this boy.  He has a purity no one can deny and he deserves so much more.
     I have been a major fan and "fiend" of The Misfits since I was literally 7 years old.  I have been able to over time, obsessively collect multiple vinyl albums of theirs and many others in the genre.  The Misfits music, fan base, artists, and talented minds has kept me strong my whole life.  My vinyl collection has been my prized possession for many years, my first love, you may even say.  I always intended on creating a family one day and passing this HUGE collection on to my child/children. Unfortunately, in this case, my son Rhys is unable to fully understand and appreciate them the way I had once imagined and for myself to enjoy them with him. It is not realistic and it only puts a strain on my heartache for this boy.  I have decided for a reciprocated cause to raffle off my near complete collection in hopes that someone can get a more full and respected fulfillment from this collection.  I plan to utilize the funds from the raffle to find sincere help for my son and his condition, as I think this will be more beneficial to him than the actual albums.  I DO not want to let them go, but I even more so, do not want to lose my child.  Please, if you have any interest and I know how difficult it is to find some of these albums in a glance.  THEY ARE HERE!!  All that needs to happen is for you or anyone you may know who is interested, buy as many raffle tickets as you desire to increase your chances of winning the entire

collection.  $10.00/ticket.  I know this may seem crazy to some, but at this point I am feeling a tad desperate, this is no hoax!!! Someone WILL win this.   I plan to do the drawing on Halloween, Thursday October 31st 2019 @ 8:00 pm EST. *Disclaimer* We need to gain # 2000 entries in order to draw on this date and will extend the draw date until entries have been met.  You will be contacted that evening or within days of the drawing to collect and confirm preferred mailing address.  Please invite and share to help the cause and if only for the collection, we do not judge.  There are photos of the collection here to review.  There are also video links on Facebook, Twitter, You Tube if you are interested in viewing those as well for any additional information you may want. All donation entries will be going toward our new non-profit organization, The Rhys Tree Corporation.  We hope to build this organization up for our son and for other children and families with rare disorders, especially Coats Plus Syndrome.  We aim to support others in need of guidance, financial assistance, information, etc.   For those who are not interested in the raffle drawing for this particular item, there is a link attached to a GoFundMe for donations for Rhys Morgan as well.  We truly appreciate your time and care in this raffle in whatever way you choose.    

Thank you and GOOD LUCK!!
