Jack's Journey

Donation protected
Life hit us hard this past month, our father (Sheena and Brittany) was diagnosed with Stage 4 Esophageal Cancer. His diagnoses was difficult to hear, he has been healthy his whole life and has lived a healthy life. He has never been a smoker and rarely had a drink. The diagnoses was a shock to our entire family. His prognosis is devastating and our family is walking this difficult journey with him. 

Our father has been the pulse of our family, and has always been there for us. He is a selfless man who is the best neighbor, the kindness community member and one of the best men we have ever known. He has been a construction worker and this diagnoses has significantly impacted his ability to attend work. 

As a family, his fiancée, children and loved ones are working to support him during this difficult time, while also spending as much time as we can with him. 

The average cost of having cancer in the US per month is over $30,000. We are taking our father to The Cancer Treatment Center of America in Philidelphea and have been fighting the uphill battle with the insurance companies since day one. 

As we walk this journey with him, his focus is still on his family rather than his own health. He keeps apologizing and saying he is sorry that we all have to do this with him. While sitting in the treatment center, he remarked how sad he was to see the other people in the center in pain. 

This has been a trying time for our family, and we are all sticking together to be with him, support him and love on him. It is difficult to ask for help and yet here we find ourselves. If you have the ability, we appreciate any funds to help ease this journey to pay for his treatment and to ensure he can receive the best care. We also appreciate any shares, or assistance getting the word out about this page. 


Jack has spent his life taking care of others and this is our chance to support him in focusing on his own health.


Thank you for joining us in supporting Jack.
