Donate to help Jeff Treptow

This past summer, our brother/uncle/friend, Jeff Treptow, was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the tongue. He has a large tumor on his tongue that has prevented him from eating, drinking, and breathing. He now has a trachea tube and feeding tube. He is fighting this cancer with all he's got and has begun the portion of the battle that includes the chemo and radiation treatments.

Through all of this, he has done his best to keep a positive attitude. Because of the toll this has already had on him, he has not been able to work. His expenses are quickly piling up and will continue to come in as he continues with his life-saving treatments. He has not yet reached his high insurance deductible and the short-term disability is still being processed and will take awhile before it begins.

So many people have already asked what they can do to help Jeff, so we, his siblings, have decided this is a great and practical way to help. We want him to focus on healing and recovery without being heavily burdened with all the medical bills.
