Help the Franklin Family Overcome Lymphoma

Hello,

My name is Justin Franklin, and I am reaching out to share my ongoing battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a journey that started back in October 2023. My family and I have faced many challenges since the diagnosis, but the road ahead is even tougher, and we need your support more than ever.

On my birthday this year, March 20, 2025, I received news that it's time to prepare for a bone marrow transplant, a critical step towards recovery. The procedure is scheduled soon, and it requires me to stay in the hospital for a minimum of two weeks, followed by months of recovery at home.

The treatment is not just physically demanding; it reaches deep into the mental and emotional reserves of anyone who undergoes it. Following the transplant, I’ve been told that my body will be extremely weak, and I’ll be highly susceptible to infections, which means I won’t be able to drive or return to my normal activities for at least three months.

I have three wonderful daughters and a loving wife who depend on me. During my time in the hospital and the subsequent recovery period, I will be unable to work, placing significant financial strain on us. This is why I am turning to you, my community, friends, and kind-hearted strangers for help.

Here’s how your donations will make a difference:

• Medical Supplies and Care: Cost of ongoing medical supplies that are not covered by insurance.

• Living Expenses: Help cover our day-to-day expenses, ensuring my family is supported while I am unable to work.

• Transportation and Miscellaneous Needs: Assistance with transportation and other unforeseen expenses related to my treatment and recovery.

Your support in any form means the world to us. Previous GoFundMe campaigns have shown us how powerful and caring our community is. Now, as we face the most challenging phase yet, we are once again asking for your kindness and generosity.

Every share and donation brings us closer to easing this burden. I promise to keep you updated throughout this journey. Your encouragement, thoughts, and support light up our tougher days and keep our hope alive. We are infinitely grateful for each and every one of you.

Please consider contributing to our campaign or sharing it with your network. Together, we can navigate this challenging time.

With heartfelt thanks, Justin Franklin and the Franklin family
