Heavy hearted and not sure how to start- but first and foremost I want to apologize to any friends and family that are finding out about this right now. The family wanted to keep this private up until now and this platform is an unexpected and last resort. On June 10th Justin was diagnosed with cancer (most definitely the worst day of our lives). On June 12th he underwent a successful surgery to remove the tumor- but after the removal the pathology showed LVI which insisted on a second major and complicated surgery called RPLND. We are now preparing for Justin to undergo the RPLND surgery to remove those lymph nodes from behind his abdomen, which will hopefully end this nightmare for good and thankfully let him avoid chemotherapy. Justin is the sole provider of a family of four and being out of work not being able to return for a few months has put an incredible strain on them financially. The last thing they need to be stressing about is money but unfortunately we all know disability pays shit. I know times are hard for everyone, and we aren’t expecting anything- like I mentioned this is a last resort. If you are able to, anything helps. As well as positive vibes, prayers and well wishes. This has been an incredibly overwhelming couple months for the family, so if you have any questions please reach out to myself or Shelly.
For those who know Justin, you know there isn’t a fight he’s lost.. cancer is no exception. We love all of you.
