Aid Laura's Family: Battle with cancer
Hello everyone , as you know I started this go fund me last year when my dad was involved in a garage fire leaving him with 2nd and 3rd degree burns. He thankfully has recovered from that and we thank you all so much for your help through that challenge. Unfortunately he has a bigger challenge now. The beginning of January he was diagnosed with small cell carcinoma. This lung cancer has a mass that has grown large enough to close off his esophagus so he has not been able to eat in a long time . The drs before this diagnosis kept stating he had gerd and that it will get better. He has lost around 80 pounds and if you know my dad that's super skinny for him ! He had his first round of chemo this week and will be starting radiation with his chemo in the second round. He has a Battle ahead but he is one strong person and I admire him for his strength and ability to keep joking and laughing even when he feels terrible some days. That being said this is very stressful for us all but especially him and my mom. If you can help them at all it would be appreciated. I'll keep updating as things go on. Luckily he's got his best friend Roxy to hang out every day. That little dog loves him so much.
