David's fight against Cancer.

Donation protected
David Cooper received the shock of his life in December 2017 when he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon cancer that had spread to his liver and lungs. Since the diagnosis, he has undergone and is continuing aggressive chemotherapy treatments every other week since then. During those weeks, David has had to miss work due to the side effects of the medications. There are currently no other options available to him to fight this cancer.
On August 29th 2018, David had suffered a massive Pulmonary Embolism so large it had straddled both lungs. Being in the right place at the right time, doctors were able to save his life and give him the care to survive this event. Unfortunately, 4 days were spent in the ICU and his bills are yet to be determined. He is in need of financial help to pay extensive medical bills and household bills.
David is a US Navy Veteran that served in Operation Desert Shield, Operation Desert Storm and Operation Provide Comfort on board the U.S.S. America, CV-66.
He was awarded the Southwest Asia service medal for his contribution at that time.
Currently, both of his sons are serving our military: one is in the US Air Force and is stationed in Lakenheath, UK and the other is in the US Army currently training in Poland. He is very proud of the accomplishments his sons have made in their young lives. Both of this boys have given him daughters-in-law this year and he wants to be able to visit them in between treatments.
David’s wife Daniella has been doing everything she can to support him, love him, and to sometimes be his sound board for this tragic time in his life. David is a proud man and does not like to ask for help but there comes a time when help is needed and now is one of those times.
Any amount of monetary donation will help reduce the stresses caused by this disease and maybe give some relief to be able to get through this and heal.
