Help My Dad Fight Cancer

Donation protected
Growing up, my Dad always made sure we had enough to eat and that we felt loved and supported in everything we did. He’s always been a caring, thoughtful person, and is a loved member of his community and church he performs in. My Dad is many things—a husband, father, grandfather, devoted Catholic, and musician—and we can’t imagine life without him.

In May of 2025, doctors found a small tumor in his liver area, which at the time didn’t present as terminal. Over the last few months, his health rapidly deteriorated and he suddenly requires constant medical care. My Dad will be starting chemotherapy treatment for Stage 4 metastatic carcinoma as soon as he is stable enough.

Our family is doing everything we can to cover the medical expenses as much as possible. However, with our combined financial contributions, we are concerned that we won’t have enough for his upcoming chemotherapy. Our fear is that this severe debt will impact our family in the long term. Our family would like to humbly request your financial support to help my Dad continue his fight against cancer. We will be ever so grateful to receive any donation, no matter the amount, in order to help my Dad live a long and healthy life. If you aren’t able to donate, sharing our GoFundMe page and keeping my Dad in your thoughts would mean so much to us. Thank you for your kindness and for taking the time to read this.

Desde mi niñez, mi papá siempre se aseguró que tuviéramos suficiente para comer y que nos sintiéramos amados y apoyados en todo lo que hacíamos. Siempre ha sido una persona cariñosa y atenta, y es un miembro querido de su comunidad y de la iglesia donde toca la guitarra y canta en el Coro. Mi papá es muchas cosas para nosotros: esposo, padre, abuelo, católico devoto y músico; y no podemos imaginar la vida sin él.

En el mes de Mayo del 2025, los médicos encontraron un tumor en el área del hígado, que en ese momento no parecían ser cancerígeno. Lamentablemente los últimos meses, su salud se ha deteriorado rápidamente y ahora requiere atención médica constante. Mi papá comenzará el tratamiento de quimioterapia para el carcinoma metastásico en etapa 4, en cuanto esté lo suficientemente estable para empezarlo. Nuestra familia está haciendo todo lo posible para cubrir los gastos médicos. Aun así, con nuestras contribuciones financieras, nos preocupa no tener suficiente para su quimioterapia. Tememos que esta deuda severa afecte a nuestra familia a largo plazo.

Nuestra familia quisiera pedir humildemente su apoyo financiero para ayudar a mi papá a continuar su lucha contra el cáncer. Estaremos eternamente agradecidos por cualquier donación, sin importar la cantidad, para ayudar a mi papá a vivir una vida larga y saludable. Si no puede usted donar, por favor comparta nuestra página de GoFundMe y mantenga a mi papá en sus oraciones y pensamientos, significaría mucho para nosotros cualquier tipo de apoyo. Gracias por su amabilidad y por tomarse el tiempo de leer nuestra historia.
