Hello friends and family,
We have just gotten some devastating news for our family. My only sibling Jamie Cockrum has just been diagnosed with a form of malignant carcinoma. We are not sure where this originated from yet. The Doctors have submitted biopsies to the Mayo Clinic and they came back

inconclusive as well. He just started his chemotherapy treatments yesterday. The treatments from a device implanted in his abdomen are targeting a large tumor (22 cm or 8.66in) that is located between his pancreas and his stomach. Thankfully the cancer doesn't seem to be in any major organs yet. There is a film of cancerous cells and small tumors throughout his abdominal cavity as well.
We are trying to get enough money together to get him to the Cancer Centers of America or the Mayo Clinic for in-depth treatment that isn't available in Las Cruces, NM. We are asking for any help that you can give

to assist with daily living expenses and/or transportation to the center. He is unable to work at this time and his girlfriend Gloria has taken on the task of daily caregiver. This has caused her to frequently miss work due to Doctors appointments, scheduled procedures and treatments. I am disabled and on disability and can only provide minimal help as I just got released from a skilled nursing facility and I am relying on home healthcare myself due to continuous ongoing health issues. Both of our parents are deceased and we really have no one else to ask for help from or to turn to. Any contributions would be greatly appreciated.
He has a chance to beat this, if we can get him to the right Doctors, and get the right treatments in time.
