Help Mike Grundy and Family Through Cancer Battle

Long time resident and all around great guy, Mike Grundy is my dad. He is currently undergoing treatment for lymphoma. Sadly, this is a recurrence of a problem we thought was resolved 5 years ago.

Bandon locals may know Mike from his enthusiastic (and smiling) customer service at the Chevron gas Station. Others may have enjoyed his music in past years with is band, Springhead.

Others may remember him as a classmate at Bandon High.

His current treatment finds him unable to work. My mom, Jodi, is his driver, caregiver and all around support during his intensive treatment. Some of his treatments take place at OSHU in Portland. In addition to his cancer treatments he has had several unexpected medical emergencies that require inpatient care in Bay Area Hospital in Coos Bay.

Current needs include help with utilities here at home, automobile expenses and lodging while in Portland. Housing is provided when my dad is undergoing outpatient treatment, but when he is hospitalized my mom must find her own lodging. Last time when he was in OSHU my mom had to leave him alone and come home for several weeks.

I know we live in a compassionate and generous community. My goal is to help make sure that when my dad’s treatment is done my parents still have their home and car to come home to.

whatever anyone can do to help alongside donations is much appreciated. We’re all just hoping for the best and seeing if we can get any help along the way. Thank you everybody ❤️
