We're starting this fundraiser for our dad. He was diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer. The doctors found a large mass in his throat and it spread to the lymph nodes in his neck. While awaiting treatment to start, the tumor grew causing difficulty breathing. He received a tracheostomy to help with his breathing.
Our dad has finally started his 7 week treatment plan of chemo and radiation, followed up by 7 weeks of recovery. He's had various doctor's appointments, along with 2 hospital stays already. He still has a long road ahead of him. Our mom is working from home to care for our dad, but he is currently not working to focus on his treatment.
We want to help raise money for medical bills along with their regular expenses. We know this is a trying time for many, but anything helps. We want to help ease any worries so our parents can stay focused on kicking this cancer's butt.
