Dad's Cancer Fight: Uniting for Hope and Healing
Donation protected
Hello,
We're reaching out because our world has been turned upside down in the past months. Our fantastic dad has been diagnosed with stage 3B lung cancer, and if that wasn't enough, we've also found out our family home is on the line for foreclosure. We're in a tough spot and leaning on your kindness to get through this incredibly hard time.
About Our Dad:

Let us tell you about the incredible guy we call Dad. He's been the rock of our family, always putting us first, no matter what. His love and wisdom have guided us through life's ups and downs, and now he's facing a huge challenge of his own. We want to be able to support and assist as much as possible during this rough time. Alleviating the financial burden is critical as we need to keep him as positive as possible to fight this battle.
The Cancer Battle:
Finding out Dad's got stage 3 cancer was like a punch to the gut. In addition to cancer, he's also been diagnosed with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD for short. COPD is like giving your lungs a never-ending traffic jam – the breathing tubes get all narrow and clogged, making it a real challenge for you to take a full, easy breath.
In addition to that doctors also found several additional cancerous masses (7 to be exact) We're looking at a long road of radiation/chemo treatments, doctor visits, and expenses that just seem to keep piling up. Our main goal right now is to make sure he gets the best care and comfort possible. Needless to say, we're facing an incredible uphill battle. Your help will go directly to his medical bills, prescriptions, and anything else he needs to beat this thing.
The Foreclosure Challenge:
Life has this cruel way of throwing curveballs, and right now, we're dealing with a big one. Our family home could be taken away due to foreclosure. With medical bills and Dad unable to work, keeping up with mortgage payments is nearly impossible. We're not just losing a house; we're losing the stability and comfort he's worked so hard to provide for his grandchildren as well as introducing a variable of instability which during this period of treatment/ road to recovery is not needed.
How You Can Help:
We wouldn't ask if we weren't really in need, but we are. And your support could mean the world to us.
Donate: If you're able to pitch in, even a little bit, it'll be a step toward easing the stress of medical bills and the threat of losing our home. Your generosity will show Dad that the love he's given throughout his life is coming back to him when he needs it most.
Share: Maybe donating isn't an option right now, and that's okay. Sharing our campaign on your social media or with friends who might be able to help could make a huge difference. You never know whose heart you'll touch.
Final Thoughts:
We're just a regular family facing some seriously tough times. Your support, in whatever form it takes, would mean more than we can express. We're holding onto hope that we can get through this with your help. Thank you for being part of our journey, for caring, and for giving us a chance to fight for our dad and our home.
With all our gratitude,
