Hi everyone, my name is Angela Kuykendall. I'm married to Gary Kuykendall. I have one son, Steven. We currently live in Rogersville. Gary and I have been happily married for 10 years. I was encouraged to set this GoFundMe up to give my husband his dream trip before he gets too unstable to go. With all the medical bills coming in, we are just not financially stable to make this dream happen. Five years ago, in August, he was diagnosed with stage 4 colon and liver cancer. He has gone through chemo, radiation, oral chemo, etc., for 5 long years. He also has Myasthenia Gravis disease and other health problems. Five years ago, he was misdiagnosed with diverticulitis, but we came to find out it was cancer.
Last week, we got the news after all the scans that the chemo is not helping anymore. Everything is still growing, so they took him off of everything and said he has 6 months to a year. I was devastated. We knew this day would come, but not so soon. He has fought for 5 years strong, hard, and brave. The last oral chemo he was on really made life hard on him, but he stayed strong and positive. He now has cancer in his liver,lungs,hip and his blood which can attack any organ or part of his body he had liver surgery in October last year and they removed 40% of liver but the cancer came back I am here to ask you guys to help me make his dream of going to see the Carolina Panthers play live. He has wanted this for a while now, and I would love for him to be able to take this trip before he gets to where he can't. I know there are way more needs in the world, and I actually feel a little embarrassed to ask for help.
We have not had to ask for any help within the last 5 years, which was a blessing. I do work a full-time job but am planning on staying home more often to share time with Gary. So, any help would be a blessing. I appreciate everything, guys, and I hope you have a blessed day.
