Former Tower of Power guitarist Bruce Conte was diagnosed with leukemia a few months ago.

Bruce is also an insulin-dependant diabetic and has been dealing with health issues for years.

You can help by donating any amount. 100% of the money collected will go to Bruce’s medical expenses. There is no generic available, which makes the medication expensive.

For now, his condition is responding very well to the medication. Thank you for reading this and please consider helping Bruce Conte.

Here are a few words from Bruce:

Dear Friends,
Around the beginning of July I took some routine blood tests to check my diabetes and doctors discovered that I had abnormal white blood cell counts. I was hospitalized for 3 days in LA and had to undergo 2 bone marrow biopsies, an ultrasound of my liver and spleen and lots of blood tests. It was determined that I had leukemia. They put me on a medicine called Imatinib 400mg. I have been on it for about 6 weeks and can tolerate the side effects. It has sent my blood levels back to normal for the this period of time. The meds are very expensive but the good news is that I can stay alive as long as I continue taking them. I don’t have health insurance because of being diabetic. I am starting to get some help from some of my friends to get me through these hard times. I appreciate any help given.

Thanks so much,
Bruce Conte
