Chuck Earlsey - Chuck Cancer to the Curb!

Charles (Chuck) Earlsey has had some tough fights in his life, but none that can keep him down.  One of the biggest fights hit in 2016 when he was diagnosed with colon cancer.   Through the doctors’ appointments, surgeries, and treatment he always kept a positive outlook.  His clean bill of health from his doctors showed that Chuck was a fighter.

Fast forward to 2018 and another emotional battle hits Chuck and his family.  Michael Earlsey, Chuck's younger brother, was taken from this world too soon in a Rochester, NY double shooting.   Chuck and his family, devastated by the loss, fight everyday with the grief, but know there is a higher power watching out for them and Michael.   Due to this faith and love they have been able to keep a positive outlook on life, and Chuck shows that bright light of positivity every day, no matter what the fight. 

Now we forward to present day - Chuck's colon cancer has returned, but this time to his lungs.  It was diagnosed at the end of 2020 as stage 4 and Chuck is fighting it with both fists.  He is currently undergoing chemotherapy and infusions during a pandemic, and even during his fight that positive light continues to shine through!  Chuck is grateful for everyday and will fight this battle like every battle before it – with his head held high, a positive attitude and smile on his face. 

We miss seeing Chuck’s smiling face every day, but we want Chuck to know we are thinking of him often and are rooting for him! That is why this Go Fund Me Page has been created.  This is a small gesture to say we are thinking about you and want to help you with your fight. 

Chuck that cancer to the curb!
