Frank and Michelle Rhodes

Frank and Michelle Rhodes are a good and decent couple whose son, Frankie Rhodes, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma on Monday, September 24, 2018.  Frankie has already had a port implanted through which chemotherapy treatments can be administered.   The doctors treating Frankie are hopeful that an aggressive treatment of chemotherapy over the next three months will effectively treat the cancer.   

Frankie Rhodes is a young man who is full of life and enjoys sports.   He has a sister, Stella Rhodes, who looks up to Frankie.   Frank and Michelle dote on their two children and love them very much and, of course, they are worried about Frankie and Stella.   The next three months will be tough on the entire family.  

While a meal train has been established for the family, Frank and Michelle will have to contend with several extra expenses that will overwhelm them.  For example, they will have to take Frankie for his treatments which means paying for more gas than they are used to, pay for co-insurance and deductibles to make sure that the health insurance coverage will cover Frankies treatments, pay for Frankie's medication, etc.   At the same time, they will need to cover their usual expenses such as their mortgage, car insurance, food, utilities, etc.   

The $8500 we are raising for Frank and Michelle will help them focus entirely on Frankie and their family over the next three months.  The money will help  Frank and Michelle make sure that the treatments that Frankie is receiving  are as effective as possible without having to worry about their finances.
