Join Ryder's Fight Against Cancer

Help Ryder Fight Cancer- Stage 2 lymphoma

Hi, my name is Nicole, and I am creating this GoFundMe for our beloved Ryder on behalf of my mom, Sandie.

Ryder is a 5-year-old golden doodle—though he's more golden than a doodle—who has brought endless love and joy to our family. He has a way of wrapping his heart around everyone he meets, with his kind and gentle spirit, who would never hurt a fly, and now he needs our help.

Ryder has been undergoing cancer treatments with a incredible cancer specialist team, and my parents have already spent thousands upon thousands of dollars to give him the best possible care. They never hesitated because giving up was simply not an option. He has completed 4 out of 5 treatments in his original plan, and the progress has been very positive. His cancer mass was shrinking, and his medical team is very optimistic.

However, during a recent evaluation, they noticed the mass was growing again more than they were comfortable with, so that created a change in his treatment plan. This means the $4,000+ my parents already spent must be restarted with a new treatment plan costing around $5,000+. This treatment costing too much was never a thought in my parent's heads and hearts to not try to fight this. Ryder's team remains extremely positive about his outcome, but this new treatment plan is vital.

I do not doubt that my parents will do everything they can to continue Ryder's care, but if you share the same love with our four-legged friends on this earth as much as we do and feel it in your heart to donate, every contribution will go directly toward his treatments. Any small amount I just know will help support this journey. Your support means the world to my mom, our entire family, and our sweet Ryder.

Ryder has many puppy cousins cheering him on, and he is eager to have their playful buddy back at 100%. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity in considering supporting this fight!

If you cannot share, please help by sharing our buddy's story! I will update everyone as Ryder progresses! Ryder had his last treatment on Thursday last week, and that is when the team decided on this new treatment change.

Our Ry Ry says thank you too!!

Much love and gratitude,

Nicole (and our entire family) <3
