Help Our Dad Fight and Beat Pancreatic Cancer

Dear friends and family, with heavy hearts, we want to announce that our father, Pavel Menshikov, was unexpectedly diagnosed with aggressive Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer.

He is currently undergoing treatment and chemo. As cancer keeps spreading to his vital organs, his life expectancy is very low, and the remaining quality of life is diminishing by the day. We are working towards getting our Dad on a clinical trial that will help him prolong his life by a few more years, which is very expensive.

Pavel has a wife and a one-half-year-old son. Given his condition, he can no longer work or provide for his family. Any donation will help to relieve some financial burdens and allow Pavel to focus on spending what is left of his life with his family.

Our Dad wants to live, and we are doing everything we can to support him through this difficult time. Pavel is one of the most kindhearted and strongest people we know. Approximately 20 years ago, he immigrated to America to help his family find a better life. Pavel is the core of our family. He has a great sense of humor; he is driven and resilient. He is a devoted father, husband, brother, and friend. Through his most challenging days, he never failed to make us laugh.

Nothing is guaranteed in this life. We hope and pray that we can help our Dad get through the treatment with success and help him secure some finances for his son's future. Please consider giving whatever you can to help Pavel and his family. No gift is too small. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
