Hi! If you don’t know me i’m Bella, Jeff’s oldest daughter. I’m creating this go fund me to help support all of my dad’s medical bills and help make this long road of recovery he has ahead a little easier.

My dad has been experiencing severe migraines for the last couple months, it would effect his everyday life but if you know my dad personally, he never complains and constantly is pushing through his own pain for the benefit of others. His migraines got continuously worse which lead to memory fog, loss of eyesight and so much more. We then figured out it was causing high blood pressure as well.

It started to get concerning, so he went to the urgent care but nothing looked alarming and he got sent home. He then had scheduled an appointment with the eye doctor to see if they could provide any answers to what could have been causing his loss of eyesight . On Monday, February 24, 2025 he had gone to the eye appointment where they found a bunch of swelling on his optic nerves which was super alarming. He was then sent to the ER to have MRI’s and CT scans done to see what the main cause was coming from. From the MRI’s they were able to find a 14 mm tumor( size of a clementine) on the front right side of his brain.

The team of doctors scheduled a craniotomy surgery for this Thursday to remove the tumor. They aren’t able to remove all of the tumor due to it touching a main vein in his brain which can lead to further complications. We are hoping for a smooth and speedy recovery, but we do have a long road of healing ahead. We ask for your positive thoughts.

ALL of the kind messages have been greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking time to read my dad’s story. ANYTHING helps!! All i ask is to keep my dad in your prayers. Everyone’s generosity and kindness makes such a huge impact on my dad’s journey. We are all so grateful for everyone’s support during this time.

With love, Bella.
