<div>I am 58 years old and I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on January 21, 2026.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>It is a day I will never forget because this is a brutal disease with a low survival rate. I have felt unwell for years and now my family and I know why. It happened to us. For those who know me, I've dedicated my life to my wife and two children, as well as fitness, and going to the gym daily. I didn't drink or smoke and always kept an all-natural diet.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My family and I are living through a never-ending nightmare, as my wife and kids watch me turn from a pillar of strength to a man who has lost 35 pounds of muscle in the last five months. I will not discuss my constant pain and violent discomfort because this effort isn't about me, it's about my family and their ability to continue, with or without me.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Things move fast with pancreatic cancer; you are sick and then diagnosed. The surgeon told me I would be dead in six months without chemotherapy. So, I said yes despite the extremely low odds of a positive outcome.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>I received news on May 19, 2026, that I have a <em>chance</em> to survive. My tumor was reduced enough to attempt a surgery that will include the removal of my body parts, ICU, and many hospitalizations.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>I've spent my entire adult life supporting my family and I now find myself in the unusual position of having to ask others for help, even people who don't know me. The costs are astronomical and 100% of your donation will help us cover these expenses as I fight for my life.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Any amount, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your consideration and support. Please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser to give my family the help it needs.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>I have loved my wife and best friend for 30 years. I love my kids and have spent every day since they were born wanting them to be happy, healthy and successful. Hug your spouse and hug your children, for you never know if your life will be cut short. Surviving this has no guarantee but I've been a fighter for my entire adult life, and I will not stop now.


</div>


<div>Scott
