LIFE CHANGES - 5 MONTHS.... PLEASE HELP!

Donation protected

Tom Reynolds has had a life-changing event and needs help. Gone is the career in Home Healthcare (Carex Health Brands & Drive Medical). Currently slipping away is the CA-based White Knight VIP Ride Service. Most importantly, gone is the one-time (not so long ago) vibrant and healthy Father, friend and associate......

Seven months ago, the first sign and diagnosis of Sarcoma (one of the rarest and most aggressive cancers) occurred. In those five months, every minute and every penny was applied toward finding and getting the best medical care possible to beat this disease. Unfortunately, even after two months of chemotherapy and radiation (at doses higher than normal), there has been no impact or change to the 9 lbs tumor that has grown on Tom's arm. The hope of shrinking the tumor dramatically so the UCI Team of surgeons could successfully remove all cancerous cells and their origin has now become a non-option. With the malignant tumor remaining at its current size, three things become a reality...
  • The risk of surgery being successful without leaving behind cancer or having a post-surgery infection (both of which can prove to be lethal) is reduced to single-digit percentages.
  • Recovery time/rehabilitation is extensive depending on whether it is a damaged limb or an amputated one.
  • The metastasized cancer from the arm, which has transferred to Tom's lungs, will still be a life-threatening issue regardless of the outcome of the arm.


I was unprepared for these outcomes, so I find myself desperately seeking help for the family that will now be without the father and provider that has been there for them for the last twenty+ years.

Our home is in default and on the market, and our savings are depleted.

My 15 yr old daughter, along with my three sons, will not benefit from my presence, guidance or financial support. The last thing I ever expected or wanted to create was a situation that would leave my family vulnerable or without resources.

Please help me secure funding to see my family through the times ahead. The thought of them not having their home, the comfort of knowing they will be sheltered and fed and be able to continue their life's path because of something caused by my health, is too much for me to bear or even think of.
