Hi, my name is Cheyenne, and I’m creating this fundraiser for my dad — a kind, humble, hardworking man who’s been courageously battling cancer for the past five years.

Five years ago, our world changed when he was diagnosed. Since then, he’s endured more than anyone should have to: countless rounds of chemo, surgeries, complications, and pain that no one sees behind closed doors. Through it all, he’s never complained. He just kept fighting — for us, for time, for one more good day.

Now, we’ve entered the hardest part of this journey. The cancer has spread, and his body is tired. He’s nearing the end of this long, heartbreaking road — and we’re doing everything we can to make sure he has peace, comfort, and dignity in his final days.

But here’s the painful truth: because of his diagnosis, my dad has been denied life insurance by every company we’ve tried. He wants to take care of his own funeral expenses — because that’s the kind of man he is — but he simply can’t get approved. It’s a cruel reality that so many families like mine are forced to face while already grieving.

We’re asking for your help so we can:
• Cover his funeral and burial costs
• Ensure his final wishes are honored
• Take some of the crushing financial burden off our shoulders so we can focus on spending these last moments together

If you’ve ever met my dad, you know he’s the kind of person who would give you the shirt off his back — even now, when he has so little left to give. If you haven’t met him, I hope this story shows you what kind of heart he has.

Anything you can give — no matter how small — would mean the world to us. And even if you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser is just as powerful.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, for caring, and for standing with us in this impossible time.

With love,
Cheyenne
