Tim's cancer treatment

Donation protected
Tim was diagnosed with a recurrent brain tumor this spring. His initial diagnosis and treatment was in 2010. Since then he had two years of treatment including surgery and 18 months of chemotherapy. We've been blessed to have 3 children after his diagnosis despite his health issues. He's had a lot of good years since then but now he needs more treatment to shrink the tumor that has regrown.  Making treatment decisions required traveling to three different hospitals to come to a consensus (MD Anderson in Texas, Sloan Kettering in NY and UPenn in Philly). He began radiation treatment on June 19th and will have treatment for 6 weeks in Philly. After that he will likely have several months of a powerful chemotherapy. Doctors told him he could expect about a year and a half of treatment. This is very difficult and costly for our family living on one income. Please support Tim as he travels to and from Philly and all the costs that are associated with treatment.

Despite all the chaos this currently brings, we declare that God is still good, even in the midst of hard times. He has provided for us through a beautiful community of people. Thanks so much for your willingness to help us out. We greatly appreciate all the love and support!
