Stand with Steve!

UPDATE: at this time, Steve still cannot work and whether or not he will be able to return is unknown at this time. He has no disability, no vacation/PTO, and no medical leave. As of now, they are reliant on Pam’s income alone. 

UPDATE: today, Steve’s biopsy results came in and he is positive for cancer in his lung(s). Because of this, he will not be able to receive the hyperbaric oxygen treatments to promote healing in his throat. He will learn more about his course of treatment this upcoming Tuesday. 

This GoFundMe has been created on behalf of the Grace family. Steve was diagnosed with cancer of the throat in September of 2023. He underwent 7 weeks of aggressive radiation 5 days a week, and chemotherapy once a week. During this time, he was out of work from October 2023 until the end of January 2024. Because of doctor's appointments, his wife Pam was unable to work much during this time.

Since May 26th, Steve has been hospitalized at Marshall Medical, Crestwood, Huntsville Hospital, and UAB. At Crestwood and Huntsville Hospital, he underwent emergency surgeries and blood transfusions due to excessive bleeding as a result of lesions from radiation burns. At UAB, he has had another surgery to stop bleeding, 3 additional blood transfusions, as well as surgery to remove a small portion of bone in his throat that was causing the radiation burns to worsen.

June 21st, Steve had a biopsy done on a spot on one of his lungs. Once those results come back, he will begin Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to promote healing in his throat. Please pray that no cancer is found in that biopsy.

Nothing like this is ever planned, and I am asking for help in hopes of alleviating some of their financial stress because money should be the last thing on anyone's mind at a time like this. Donations are greatly needed due to the financial crisis the continuous treatments has created, and due to the possibility of job loss in the coming days in the event of a lung cancer diagnosis.

Steve is a husband, Dad, Stepdad, brother, uncle, Pappy, friend, and fighter, and we want to see him through this as stress-free as possible.
