Bobby Blackmon Medical Expense Fund

Donation protected

As many of you know Bob went through brain surgery to remove a large tumor that protruded through his skull in April of 2011. Now we are here again July 2015 and he has gone through another brain surgery to remove a tumor that was sitting on top of his right eye and pressing on the frontal lobe of his brain.  Bob is a loving father of two boys, Benjamin 21 years old, and Dylan 8 years old ready to enter second grade.  Bob is an avid golfer, loves life and absolutely loves coaching his boys in all things sports! He has throughout the years coached little league and soccer here in our wonderful town of  Grass Valley.  Bob is also an amazing musician and small business owner who has touched many people's lives through his beautiful musical talent, also doing business locally for different schools , the sheriffs association and the local little leage. Bob is a shining light in our community! In the past we did not ask for any financial help and that was a mistake. We are in a situation that we are still trying to pay off medical bills and credit cards used to keep us a float in 2011. With credit maxed and bills starting to pile up again we ask for help. Bob has made it through this surgery remarkably well, which we are so thankful for. That being said our road is just beginning. The Doctors have found some other suspicious abnormalities in the base of his skull and are speaking with us about proceeding with radiation and chemotherapy. We have more tests to do, and big decisions to make. We are very scared and the last thing we need right now is for the bills to overtake us. Bob will be unable to work at his full potential and I am not currently working or in a position to find a job as I need to take care of Bob , his health care and of course taking care of Dylan and everything that involves running a home. I do have a few close friends who have offered to come in and help w Bob's business which will hopefully keep us from having to close down shop, at least for now. I ask that if you can spare an little bit it will be so greatly appreciated . I do not like asking for anything, especially money, but that is what we need to keep a roof over our head and keep on getting Bob the best medical care possible. Thank you so much to all our friends and family! I will keep you updated to Bob's progress through this difficult time.
