Paul Nell's Cancer Fight

On November 17th, 2016 our dad, Paul Nell, went in for a routine hernia surgery. However, they were not able to repair his hernia due to "unusual growths" found in the abdomen. After testing and biopsies were taken, the doctor called our dad four days later and confirmed that he had a very rare type of cancer called Peritoneal Mesothelioma. His hernia turned out to be a blessing in disguise. We feel that God was looking out for our dad because the doctors told him that if his cancer went undetected, the Mesothelioma could have killed him within a year. At least now our dad has a chance to fight this nasty cancer. He will have surgery and many months of chemo treatments. The next nine months to a year will be very difficult for our family. Dad will miss a lot of work, many of our school activities, and be totally stressed out about bills (if you know Paul, you know what we're talking about)!
Now our family is looking to raise enough money to pay for all the medical bills, living expenses, and whatever else might occur in the future. We are grateful for all of your prayers, and if you are able to donate any money to help our family, it would be really appreciated.
Lots of thanks and gratitude from Heidi, Emma, and our mom Karen.
