Help Rhiannon Care for Her Father, a Veteran Battling Stage 4 Cancer

Hi, my name is Rhiannon McMahon, and I’m reaching out with a deeply personal request.

My father, Kevin McMahon, is a 71-year-old Army Veteran who served in Communications and spent over 40 years as a long-distance truck driver and U.S. mail carrier. He is a man who has given so much—to his country, to his community, and especially to his family.

Kevin has recently been diagnosed with aggressive stage 4 throat cancer and is currently undergoing intensive radiation and chemotherapy. He is in week four of treatment, and the toll is immense—physically, emotionally, and financially.

I live in a neighboring state, and although I’ve been able to provide some care in short visits, it’s become clear that he now needs full-time support—someone to help with meal preparation, medication management, cleaning, and the deeply personal care required during this stage of treatment.

Kevin does have a loving and incredibly supportive partner, but she is also managing her own health issues while caring for her elderly family members. The burden is simply too heavy for her to bear alone.

To be there for my dad in these crucial weeks, I must temporarily step away from my job. This means I will lose income, and I’ll need to cover travel, lodging, transportation, and basic living expenses while I provide him with the care he so desperately needs.

How Your Donation Will Help

Your support will help me:

Cover travel and lodging expenses so I can be by my father's side.

Provide a clean, safe space to prepare meals and assist with his medical needs (feeding tube care, hygiene, etc.).

Offset lost income so I can maintain basic household bills while I’m away from work.

Ensure my father receives the consistent, compassionate care that can make all the difference in his fight.

My father has always been a giver—a quiet hero in many people’s lives. It is now my turn to give back to him in his greatest time of need.

If you feel moved to support us, please know that any amount helps and is received with profound gratitude. If you can’t contribute financially, a simple share of this fundraiser would mean the world.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for reading, for caring, and for being a part of this journey with us.

With gratitude,
Rhiannon & Kevin McMahon
