Support Chad's Battle Against Cancer
Donation protected
On May 8, 2024, Chad Parnell went into the ER with a horrible cough that wouldn't go away. Much to our surprise, the doctor said he had a mass in his chest. We were then sent to UPMC Shadyside in Pittsburgh, where they verified he had a tumor the size of a grapefruit that was sitting against his lungs and pressing against his heart. The doctors diagnosed him with a Stage 3 metastatic germ cell tumor: the
highest stage for this cancer. Chad has just begun his second round of chemotherapy. My Mom has been his caregiver since day one, and has been traveling back and forth to the hospital, focusing on Chad, and making him as comfortable as possible. As you can imagine, the expenses are beginning to add up and take a toll on both my brother and my Mother. Chad won’t be returning to work for at least 5 months maybe longer depending on how he responds to the treatments. We are asking for prayers, and if anyone would like to donate to help my brother and his family. Chad has three young daughters ages 10, 8, and 7 whom he has to provide for as well. No donation is too small and will be greatly appreciated. You can message my mother (Annette McCoy) or my sister (Kelsey Kauffman) or myself with any questions you may have. Thank you so much for your prayers and any donation you can make!
Thank you and God Bless.
