Fundraising for Jeff Sr.

On December 27th 2018, we decided that it was time to bring my father to the hospital. For weeks he had been dealing with struggles such as buttoning his shirts and tying his shoes, so we had assumed that there was something wrong, but what we found out was something we did not expect. The doctors quickly returned to our room following a CT scan and told us that they had found a brain tumor. We later learned that my father has two brain tumors which metastasized from his lung.  
Even though that a diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer is difficult to process, we are a family who is determined to beat this. Though we have the fortitude and strength to overcome such obstacles, there have been major set backs that one could only imagine. Both of my parents live on a farm where they raise alpacas. Obviously, my mother has been working double time to try and keep everything running smoothly, but lately there have been major set backs with this as well.  Both of my parents decided to buy a truck on 1/28/19 in order to have an extra vehicle to drive back and forth to appointments in case anything were to go wrong with their current vehicle. On Wednesday, 1/30/19, the truck that they had just purchased immediately had significant transmission issues and is now sitting at an automotive repair shop.  We are not a family who usually asks for help, but we are worried that without this help, we may find ourselves in a hole that we cannot dig out of. We are simply asking for any general assistance that anyone would be willing to offer at this time for medical bills, automotive repair, or housing during this time. We cannot stress how much it would mean to us for your generosity, thoughts, and prayers during this time.
