Please help Riley beat cancer!
Donation protected
I am starting this fund on behalf of Riley (my brother-in-law) and Tawnie (my sister).
High school sweethearts, Tawnie and Riley Gobeil, tied the knot 2 years and 2 weeks ago after being together for 7 years. Riley graduated the police academy a year later and has been working for the Fair Oaks Ranch Police Department ever since. They bought a house together this past Summer and have been holding off on starting a family until Tawnie finishes her schooling for child psychology.
Last week, their lives were unexpectedly turned upside-down when Riley visited his doctor for some chest pains he had been experiencing. CT scans showed a unknown, yet substantial, 13cm (5.1in) mass on top of his heart. 5 days later the biopsy tests confirmed Riley’s condition as Hodgkin’s Lymphoma - a cancer that attacks the immune system.
Thankfully, Riley is going to be receiving treatment from a renowned Oncologist. His insurance is going to help out, but it is not going to be enough. No one could have predicted how quickly the expenses would have accumulated. Aside from chemotherapy and radiation, he is going to have to adopt a costly diet. And due to the sterilization effects of cancer treatment, Tawnie and Riley are seeing a fertility clinic beforehand so they can still have their family in the future. Unfortunately, neither of these are covered by insurance at all.
We are all immensely appreciative of any assistance at all. Please consider donating so we can make Riley’s road to recovery as stress-free as possible! PLEASE SHARE!
