Craig Loveless is in the fight of his life, for his life.  Earlier this week Craig was diagnosed with Stage IV Cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer).  After not feeling well for several months and visiting many doctors, Craig was able to see a physician that took their concerns seriously.  This doctor immediately requested a CT scan, that resulted in findings of tumors in his liver and lungs.  Craig continued to work up until last week through his pain, and illness.  Craig will be starting Chemotherapy on Wednesday the 30th of December and he has a long, hard road ahead of him.  Gratefully, he has both short and long term disability insurance that will pay him for 2/3s of his regular pay.  Holly will need to take intermittent time off to care for Craig and support him through this battle.  As you all know, both Craig and Holly are humble and take pride in their self sufficiency so please know that this ask doesn’t come lightly.  In doing the math, we think if we can raise $32,000 we will be able to make both Holly and Craig “whole” for the next 6 months, as Holly still intends to work part time.  This $32,000 also includes the $6,000 minimum that they will have to meet for the remainder of their insurance to be paid 100% in 2021.   I am going to build a Caring Bridge site where Holly can provide you all updates on Craig’s progress.  If you have questions, please know that you can reach out to me directly on messenger and I will get in touch with you as soon as possible.  Thank you in advance for your generosity and prayers.


Love, Carrie (Holly and Craig’s friend)
