Help This Old Fart

Richard Whitney, beloved husband and father, has been a resident of Tampa, FL for 48 years and is currently suffering from stage two brain cancer and stage three lung cancer. Richard has been undergoing rounds of chemotherapy and radiation for the past four months, which has dropped his body weight to 107 pounds. With the ever changing condition of his health, there is no telling how long the therapy will have to continue. His current care giver is his loving wife who he recently married in December of 2021 after having dated for 25 years. He is an amazing "Pop Pop" to his twelve foster children for over the past 20+ years, ranging in age from a one year baby to young adults. In Richard's words, "It's not easy feeling like I'm beggin' for money because I have been a hard worker for all my life but I honestly don't know what to do." Richard's current expenses are $800 every third week for medical testing and visits with several additional costs for medication. Supporting medical emergencies are never easy and we are asking for your help. This man has touched so many lives and we are willing to do whatever it takes to make to make this old fart healthy again.
