[Stage IV gastroesophageal junction cancer with mixed morphology of adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine cells]. This diagnosis came quickly after a few weeks of ill health. He and his spouse Shelia have been commuting to and from to Rochester MN from Duluth MN for treatments at the Mayo Clinic. He is being treated by some of the best medical professionals in the world therefore the comfort knowing the best care from this point on.

Needless to say the commuting, housing costs, food, mileage on their vehicle adds up. Additionally they are parents to 9 children who are in the care of their grandparents and other family members however are not able to be with their mom or dad through these extended stays in Rochester.
