Dear Friends and Family,

I hope this message finds you well. As some of you know and some of you have recently learned, Jason was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma cancer last year. He went through a surgery in August 2024 where they thought they removed all of the cancer from his lip. We learned in February that the cancer had spread into his mouth and required additional treatment. Though we received excellent care, we decided to go to the specialists at MD Anderson for this second round of treatment and we are so glad we made that choice. We have been and are continuing to navigate the planning, travel and challenges that come with treatment and recovery in Houston, Texas.

After graciously declining a gofundme campaign several times, we finally reluctantly agreed to allow our family members to create a GoFundMe campaign for those that have asked how they might help support our family during this challenging time.

We don’t have a specific goal in mind for fundraising, we trust God will provide a way through to this experience and we trust His grace and provision. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in our lives and allow us to focus on what matters most: Jason’s health and taking care of the kids at home.

We are grateful for any support you have or continue to provide—whether it’s through a donation or simply sharing our campaign with others, sending a meal to the house or offering to help with a grocery run we are eternally grateful for you all and the offers. Your kindness, prayers, and love mean the world to us.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support and generosity.

With love and gratitude,

Jason and Lauren
