Help friend of Quiksilver and professional bodyboarder Eddie Solomon. Eddie is 33 years old and is currently battling Hi Grade T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. He has a fiancée and a one year old son. His story can be seen here.

In order for Eddie to have a real chance of survival he must go to Germany to get treatment. The main problem is the cost of this treatment/trip which is in the $75,000 + USD range and is not covered by insurance at all.
