NANTICOKE — A community in lower Luzerne County is banding together to lift the spirits of a 27-year-old cancer patient. In early June, Richard Laury, of Nanticoke, found out he had advanced glioblastoma — brain cancer. “It was like an out of body experience,” Laury said about the day he found out. He also said he went totally pale and thought “it was a dream.” Unfortunately, it wasn’t. He is currently two weeks into six weeks of chemotherapy and radiation.
