PLEASE HELP PATRICK: STAGE 3 COLON CANCER

Please consider helping Patrick Beal, as he battles Stage 3 Colon Cancer. Patrick is a son, a brother, a father, and a fighter. He's only 38, and the odds of Patrick having colon cancer were extremely low, but the chances of his complete recovery are very high! With your help, he will be a survivor!

The battle will be difficult, the costs astronomical...and Patrick had no healthcare insurance for the two surgeries in his battle with cancer...and he will be going home with no job and mounting bills. His doctors are optimistic about his survival from cancer, but the medical bills and paying for future chemotherapy treatments could overwhelm him after his discharge.

Patrick will need a future surgery to reverse the colostomy procedure needed after he got a very serious infection, from the first operation to remove the melon-sized tumor from his colon. He has a 14 inch open laparotomy incision that will require follow-up care three times a week, until he is clear of infection.

This will not be an easy journey for Patrick....having no income for the months ahead will make it much harder. Harder to pay rent...harder to pay utilities...harder to pay for groceries. We are asking that if this sounds like something you feel you could help with, then please help. With many helping, your gift will be a blessing.
