Hi Friends and Fans of Ray! This is his wife, Rhian Ferrer….
Tuesday morning I found Ray in bed having a seizure (he has never had one before) I brought him to the hospital and he is stable but has a massive baseball sized tumor in/on his brain. He will be undergoing surgeries, radiation and chemo therapy in the upcoming months.
I have set up a Go Fund Me page for Ray.
Here is the link. http://www.gofundme.com/rayferrer
Please share and be sure to check out the links on the page, including the Etsy link where you can get get great art prints of his that will also help contribute!
From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you and our family thanks you. He holds his fans in such high regards and will be updating everyone as things progress.

Thanks for sharing! Praying for him and the family! God bless! ❤
I’m glad that you have such a following: that says a great deal about you. ‘Never had cancer, and I do not know what it is like to walk in your shoes. I always liked that line in Apollo 13, when Ed Harris at Ground Control Houston says “This could be our finest hour.” I hope the best for you, artist-blogger-fighter-good man. T
Thoughts and prayers. I see you’re moving to San Diego–there is excellent health care there. May he have the best!
IN San Diego now! So happy to be out here!

Oh no… My thoughts are with both of you for a speedy recovery!
I wish Ray a full and speedy recovery. My thoughts are with you all. 🙂
Thank you, so much!!!

Thanks For Sharing Both Are In My Prayers…
I am sorry to hear this sad news. I am hoping for the best outcome for both of you and that Ray will get well soon.
I know you must be reeling. What a shock. I’m a big admirer of Ray’s work. He brings unique beauty into the world. I’m wishing him fast healing and you comfort in the days ahead.
Thank you so much for your support and kindness. http://gofund.me/rayferrer

For Artist RAY FERRER. Let’s help in whatever way we can.

Jesus…sorry to hear this. Ray just started following my blog a few days ago. I’ll keep you all in my prayers. I wish him a speedy recovery. Stay strong.
I am so deeply sorry to hear of this. Please send Ray all of our love and best wishes, and that goes out to you and your family too. In times like this, you have to reach deep down, and suck up every ounce of courage that you have. It’s horrific, but trust in life. (NO religion here) for Ray IS life, not living life. How much is the procedure after you’ve paid what your medical aid will pay. i.e. how much are you trying to raise honey?
Lots of love
Deborah

If you can, please help this man and his family. Tumors of any kind lead to expensive treatment and it takes so much support from the loved ones around you.

Best wishes to you and to your family. You will get through this, I promise.
Hi Rhian. What a dreadful experience for you to find your husband so ill! My aunt has survived having had a tumour removed and undergoing therapies over 40 years ago. I will keep you and Ray in my thoughts. Strength and blessings to you all!
Thank you for letting us know. Prayers for him and you as you get through this.
He must keep up the fight, I will pray for him and you as well that he will win this fight. Please keep us all informed and try to stay strong.
I will be praying for Ray and you as well.
I’m praying for you Ray. Mrs. Ferrer, I’m truly sorry. I hope all of our prayers help to put your heart at ease. We all wish him a fast and safe recovery. He is very talented and deserves true praise. Not too many people can do what he does. He is really amazing and I can stare at his work for hours. Thank you Ray for always giving us something to look forward to; new art!

Praying for Ray!
My prayers are with you both, my best friend had this same experience two years ago, and shes still here! Keep hope xo
Thank you for letting us know….prayers, love and strength to you all!
Best wishes and strength to both of you. Cancer is a scourge. One day at a time. ❤
Many blessings and prayers!
Prayers and healing energy to your husband, courage, hope and strength to your family in this difficult time.
Rhian, I’m so sorry to hear the news of Ray’s tumor. Having suffered a brain hemorrhage in 2011, I know what it is to have to fight for survival. Usually only 30-40% of us make it to the hospital, yet I survived, even after suffering a stroke during brain surgery. Be strong and have faith in God, in Ray’s will, and in the doctors.
Ray is an extraordinarily talented artist and I’m sure he is one heck of a fighter as well. The journey will not be easy, but it will make you both stronger and more grateful for the little things in life you share. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers; sending you both warm, gentle, healing hugs. God Bless you both and may his recovery be swift. Eva
Keeping you all in my thoughts. Wishing you strength and courage in these difficult times.
My family and I send our very best to Ray, you, and yours. May Ray and all who love and care for him be supported in the most healthy, generous, and helpful ways.

This guy is an amazing talent. I’ve fallen in love with many of his works and if I could afford to buy art, his would definitely be the first I would get. I’m keeping him in my thoughts and will pass this along, hoping those of you who see it will do the same.

I understand the emotional toll that cancer plays on the individual and family, so it’s a blessing to know that Mr. Ray will not have to tackle this journey alone.

That is sad news, thinking of you all xxx
Please know you are in my prayers – I formerly worked with brain tumor as well as seizure patients at The Cleveland Clinic, and know your pain personally as well. My son is stable today, but was diagnosed with a pediatric brain tumor 7 years ago. If you ever need to reach out for any reason, please feel free to contact me at anytime. This is a subject I am unfortunately very well versed on. Take care 🙂
Thank you, tremendously!!
