Please Help Jonathan Fight stage 4 throat cancer
Donation protected
Hello my name is Marty and I'm trying to raise money to help Jonathan through his fight with cancer. He is unable to work due to radiation and chemotherapy. I thought that you would like to hear his story as it is, from him.
Good morning everyone. I just wanted to take a minute to write to you about my situation. My whole world came crashing down on me with the diagnosis of cancer. I had no idea that something like this could be so devastating and destructive to people's lives. I have been a HVAC/R service technician for the past 25+ years but everything came to a complete stop about 4 months ago when I started having problems with my throat. It has made it impossible for me to be able to support my family which could be more devastating than the cancer itself. I have doctor appointments everyday of the week for radiation treatments and most other days have doctor appointments for the oncologist or speech therapist and every Wednesday for chemotherapy. I'm having to hire a vehicle everyday because the very high dosage of pain medication leaves me unable to drive my own for safety reasons.. I love my family and am doing everything I can to keep us together throughout this whole ordeal. If we can beat this cancer we will have nothing left except for each other, which is ok with me. At first it was just a tingle when I would swallow food but quickly started to become a more serious problem. It got to the point where, without me knowing, the tumor had grown so big (doctor said the size of a walnut) that it was pushing on the nerves to my left ear, causing the feeling of an ice pick being stuck into my ear. The tumor was creating pressure on the left side of my brain as well and it felt like the worst migraine headache ever but only on the left side of my head. I was and am scared to death. Luckily for me I was able to get in to get help, some people are not that fortunate and I feel so sorry for them. Now I find myself appealing to you guys, the community, for help. Please help me with your kindness so we can get through this very hard, possibly fatal situation. I have applied and qualified for emergency SSI benefits because my condition is inoperable and they have a compassionate allowance list that my disease is on because the prognosis is so very poor for people in my position, but that is going to take months to start helping. So please, if you can, Help us get to the finish line so I can get back to work and resume life better than ever after what I consider the 'wake up call'. Give the spouse and children a kiss and remember how precious life is and that we are only here for each other and nothing more. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and helping. God bless you all.
Thank you so much Marty Sanchez for creating this platform for help, I love you so very much.
