Help fight Bill's cancer, it is stage 4 small cell
Donation protected
I am a father of 4 and a husband to a very intelligent wife and best friend. We will be married 21 years in October.
I found out back in February that the pain in my prostate area was an enlarged prostate. Then found out it showed low PSA results. The next month after we had PET scan and MRI that it was cancer and a very rare small cell carcinoma of the prostate. They told us it is stage 4 because it spread to my sacrum, sternum and liver. The outlook from the chemo did not look promising. We spent time researching alternative methods and found a clinic that specialized in alternative cancer treatment. After four weeks of treatments we were left with our life savings gone, and a considerable financial burden in addition to the overwhelming cancer diagnosis. Now we have additional medical expenses as I found out that the treatments were not successful. I now must start chemo and radiation treatments. We found another oncologist that has a different approach to treatment that includes immuno therapy.

Now that we have found a new oncologist, we found that my cancer has also spread into a few more areas.
I can no longer work and my wife is trying to take care of me and our 3 children that are still at home. That is more than a full time job and leaves her no time to get a job.
We greatly appreciate any help you can offer.
Thank you for reading and God bless you.
