Daniel's Story

Donation protected
Update (6/18/2015)- I'm sure everyone has read Daniels Story and the updates that are shared on there. Daniel has officially taken a turn for the worse. His  wife Lindsey decided it was in his best interest to call in hospice to help care for Daniel. When they came yesterday his levels were very low (heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen) and they started him on oxygen. Today they will start him on morphine. Your donation will help Towards his memorial, as well as help Lindsey and Kristopher with whatever costs are going to come their way trying to keep their Feet on the ground! Every small donation helps. If you'd like to see Daniel feel free to contact one of us so we can arrange it! Thank you and God Bless!



  As some of you know, Daniel was diagnosed with Colorectal cancer in October of 2011. Since then he has spent countless days in and out of the hospital battling an ongoing fight for survival. Within the last few weeks, Daniel's liver has declined significantly causing them to currently reside at the hospital because Daniels liver is to weak to allow them to go home. Currently doctors are discussing options, leaving no stone unturned, as to what is the best procedure for Daniel to undergo. It is imperative that Daniel's bilirubin levels decrease, as right now they have risen to a 17 and are still rising when they should be at a 1. 

Lindsey, Daniels wife, has spent every waking minute by his side and caring for their six year old son who requires just as much attention. Between the hospital, and going back and forth caring for their son or finding someone who can, she doesn't have time for anything else.

This family lives off a set income, which isn't very much. Any donation will help this family out during this trying time and will at least take some stress off of them so they can focus on a positive outcome for Daniel and their family.

I can promise you one thing, Daniel has always been very strong willed and will not just give up.

Please keep the family in your prayers. Thank you.
