<div>Anyone who knows Charlie knows that he's no stranger to back pain. He's previously had a lumbar surgery but for the past year the pain has been radiating up his back. Through many unconstructive doctors appointments Charlie has pushed through the pain. He finally demanded to see his spine doctor who ordered a new mri. August 27th was just like any other day. We went out and drove posts on a fencing job before Charlie went back to the doctors. He was laying on the table about to get an injection in his spine when the nurse stopped the procedure and told Charlie he needed to go talk to the doctor in his office. He told Charlie that he reviewed his MRI and that he needed to go to the hospital immediately and we have been here since. Our whole world has been turned upside down. Charlie has been diagnosed with uncureable stage 4 non small cell lung cancer which has spread from his lung to his spine. A tumor pushing on his spine fractured his C7 vertibre. While we have been in the hospital his T2 has fractured. September 10th Charlie had an emergency spinal fusion because his nerves were being compressed and he was loosing feeling and mobility in his legs and arms. The doctors were worried that if it continued Charlie could have become permanently paralyzed. His legs have recovered since but his arms and hands still have limited mobility. The doctors have ordered a second MRI and there's a possibility that he needs to have another surgery. We originally would have waited about 3 weeks to be cleared to start the cancer treatments to hopefully slow the spread or even shrink the tumors but now that may be pushed back again. We don’t know what the future holds — whether we have months or years — but we are holding onto hope and taking things one day at a time. Our 10-month-old son, Colton, deserves to grow up knowing his father’s strength, his humor, and his love. Charlie is determined to fight for every possible moment with his family.

</div>

<div>The road ahead will be long and uncertain, filled with challenges — from recovery to treatment and everything in between. All donations will go directly toward covering Charlie’s ongoing and unknown medical expenses — including treatments, specialized care, and travel to and from appointments. They will also help support our family during this incredibly difficult time, as our small family business has been put on hold while we focus entirely on Charlie’s health and recovery. We deeply appreciate every single donation, and we are just as grateful to those who help by sharing our story. Your kindness gives us strength and hope when we need it most. We’re taking each step together, with faith, love, and the support of those around us. We are so grateful for the kindness, encouragement, and prayers we’ve received. Every message, and every moment of support means more than we can ever put into words. Thank you for walking beside us during this difficult time.

</div>

<div>With love,

</div>

<div>Charlie, Natalie, and Colton
