Francis Pineda is a father of two daughters in 8th and 4th grade.  He is the sole bread winner for the family. He recently under went a serious surgery called the Whipple Procedure . The doctors discovered Cancer in his pancreas  shortly after surgery. Francis needs at least two months of recovery for this surgery. Following his recovery he will begin chemotherapy. The family is in need of assistance for medical and household expenses for at least the recovery period. Hopefully, Francis will be able to return to work while undergoing chemo. The family is reluctant to ask for assistance but is humbled by those who have reached out to them during this very difficult  time. Any assistance is a blessing and will be appreciated.
