My brother Algird is an 18 year survivor of stage 4 malignant melanoma. On May 13, 2018, he posted on Facebook, "I am sick of being sick. Anyone have a home remedy for excoriating pain lasting 3 months or longer?" Little did we know that just a few weeks later, he would be diagnosed with primary pancreatic cancer, inoperable. Al's prognosis is 6 months - 2 years with chemotherapy.
Al's wife Joyce, who has been by his side, caring for him, his entire journey. Joyce has had to take a lot of time off of work in the past couple of months, as Al has been scanned, hospitalized, and operated on. Depending on Al's pain and how he responds to the chemotherapy, she will probably continue to take time off from work. So they are currently living on Al's disability, which doesn't cover their regular living expenses, let alone the medical bills that are racking up.
As they face this financial crisis, we are reaching out to friends, family and their community to help support Al and Joyce. We ask for your prayers, good thoughts, and any financial support you can provide.
Al and Joyce are so appreciative and grateful for all the love and support they have received. Keep the prayers coming!
