Brian's Battle

My name is Debra Foxwell, I am fundraising for my AMAZING husband Brian Foxwell. Brian went from a healthy, strong, fun loving, hardworking family man to a disabled patient in record time.
His life expectancy is now 3 - 6 months & that is with Chemo as confirmed by his Oncologist 03/11/2022. Of course we are doing everything possible to beat those odds!! NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!!!
Chemo may prolong his life but there is no cure. Brian struggles with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer and was recently diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma so we're fighting a double whammy here! His first Squamous Cell cancer was diagnosed Dec 2019. He went through strong radiation & chemo, that seemed to eradicate the cancer. However, in 2021 he was diagnosed with inoperable Stage 4 Prostate Cancer & just last week, more Squamous Cell after a biopsy. The cancer has spread throughout his body & to his bones, making mobility for him, damn near impossible. Brian uses a cane, rollator & transport chair. He desperately needs a Chair Lift on the stairs asap. (UPDATE...the Stair Chair Lift was installed last week. He now has access to upstairs bedrooms & baths!)
The new mass in his chest makes him easily winded. Climbing those 14 stairs were agonizing for him...thankfully with your generous donations, that is no longer an issue! Thank You All!!
Medical Bills are through the roof & One thing Brian doesn't need...is the added financial stress in his condition so HE asked me to create a Fundraiser that may help with his ever climbing medical expenses, equipment needs etc. Because Brian in NOT at the Hospice or Higher Level Care Stage, insurance does not pay for any medical equipment. 
Brian is currently unable to work (since early Feb 2022). He is on Short Term Disability at this time and will not be going back to the jobs he loves as a long time Real Estate Professional with Shaffer Realty, LLC & HVAC Warehouse Manager with RE Michel...unless his treatments work & his Dr approves his return to work.  As his wife of almost 26 years, I am his full time caretaker. I can do this but I need your help!
Brian started a new dual medicine chemo mid March however if it makes him sick, it will not continue. His immune system can't tolerate much more. He will receive immune booster shots & his Oncologist is trying to get immunotherapy approved but insurance is fighting it. So...on Brian's behalf, during Brian's Battle with cancer, if you can give, please do so. Our family appreciates all donations, prayers & well wishes! Thank you! ❤
