While awaiting the arrival of their 2nd child together Chad was diagnosed with a very aggresive stage 4 Melanoma.  During this time the family has faced several obstacles including the unthinkable news that the Dr's last effort at treatment has been unsuccessful. 

Amanda and Chad fell in love 5yrs ago and immediatley Chad gained the love from Amanda's 6 children. Three years later they would share a child of their own.  By late summer 2015 they learned they were expecting their 2nd child, making them now a family of 10.

Since Chad's diagnosis in early 2016 the family continues to balance sports, school activities, work, daily chores at home and medical needs.

With only 5 weeks left in Amanda's pregnancy the prognosis for Chad is terminal.  We invite you to share your love and support for this amazing family.  We are hoping to raise enough money to help with medical bills, baby supplies ( as Amanda had gotten rid of all baby items after the last child), your typical day to day life as Amanda is off work caring for Chad and the kids and any future expenses.
