Help Boe and His Family Through Cancer Battle

Hi, everyone! Happy Holidays!

This is so hard to write.. I’m trying to raise money for Boe and our family. He was diagnosed with testicular cancer stage 1A last June, 2023. We were able to keep it local; he did surgery and chemo 15 minutes from home. We had a rough few months after that though; Boe lost his job, we experienced a miscarriage, but we eventually made it through and were blessed with a beautiful boy this year!

Unfortunately now, Boe has been diagnosed with stage 2B testicular cancer. We found out the week Linus was born, in August 2024. A tumor migrated to the base of his kidney. In all of his scans, it was 2 cm; within 3 months, it grew to 6 cm. His tumor is the size of a tennis ball now. The doctors around home are unable to operate on this type of cancer, and when Boe was eventually operated on, they said it’s too big to take out right now. Boe will be out of work for a long time; he’s recovering from the surgery he received in the cities, and now he’ll be spending 9 weeks doing chemotherapy soon.

Our family is doing as much as they can to help us out, but with Boe being out of work, and us driving 2 hours to the cities for all of his appointments, travel and medical expenses are piling up. I will be working as much as I can between driving him to his appointments, and hoping I can get some hours in at work when he’s doing chemo. It would be so amazing if I can get some help.

I appreciate all the support we’re getting. Thank you all! We couldn’t do it without you.
