Team Colby’s Fight Against Cancer
Donation protected
As close friends of the Colby family, we have created this go fund me account to help them through this trying fight.
Chris and Teresa Colby have been married for 12 years. They are the loving parents of 2 amazing boys, Jacob 12 and Luke 6. Chris is a family man who has been the soul provider in their home for the last 12 years. Chris’s kids describe their dad as “cool and funny” and “supportive”.
Through this horrible time, Teresa has been by his side, never giving up on him. “After 15 years of partnership, there are no words to describe our marriage. Chris is the one person that makes me feel at home. To me home is not a place, it’s a feeling… a person…. Chris…Chris is my home. I couldn’t imagine my life without him. He is the world to me, to our family.”
Being a navy veteran, Chris is a very devoted, hard working man. Anyone who knows Chris knows what its like to have a great friend. With his contagious laugh and adventurous attitude there are no strangers when it comes to Chris. From coaching youth soccer, to being an active member of the church, Chris is the “give you the shirt off his back” kind of guy. Even through this trying time, Chris has stayed positive and in good spirits never letting anything bring him down.
On June 29 2018, Chris Colby was given catastrophic news. Stage 4 pancreatic cancer that had metastasized to his liver. When Dr said “no cure” Chris said “not the end”. With his strong will, determination and positive attitude Chris chose to fight. But with fight comes struggles.
Every 2 weeks, Chris travels from his home in West Virginia to his home town of Conroe Tx where he undergoes chemo therapy at MD Anderson Medical Center. Traveling has become very hard on Chris resulting in him staying in Texas with family while leaving his wife and 2 boys behind.
As time passes the struggles continue to weigh on the family. Physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, and spiritually. Chris works from home as much as he can and Tereasa juggles a part time job while trying to raise their boys. This family has never given up through this horrible situation.
Any donations will go directly to the Colby family to help with travel expenses, daily needs,utilites, medical bills Etc. Please join us in our fight against cancer.
