I stopped by UCLA yesterday to drop off 100 GabeMax Air headphones to kids in treatment for various cancers.

I think it’s important when you’re initially facing something that seems impossible to overcome, that you can find inspiration and motivation from someone whose popped up on the other side (mostly 🤪) unscathed whose been able to return to normal life and even do things that some people might feel is impossible like following their dreams to create and release music on a major platform.

I’m continuing to send these out to different hospitals around the country because when I first went into treatment I was gifted a box that included noise cancelling headphones which helped me block out all the stressful sounds of the hospital and focus on what brought me peace, music. I hope I can bring a little bit of that peace and hope to someone going through what I went through.

Speaking of what I went through, I have the next step of good news in my journey. As of my last testing with my doctors I’m currently NED which stands for “No Evidence of Disease”. With my cancer type, this is incredible news and almost as rare as the disease itself. I still have a long way to go though and have new scans in March. I need to go about 5 years NED for the first big step of going into remission and 10 years before I’m technically considered free of cancer, but right now this is a big win for me and a big win for my Cancer type.

Thank you to everyone whose continued on this journey with me and whose stuck around to hear my music.

Swipe left to take a peak at the GabeAir Max Headphones and drop a 🥊🥊 if you think I should give away a bunch of pairs to all of you! I’m thinking about making more 🖤
