Rob Jolley - Help an Absolutely Amazing Person

Rob Jolley is an absolutely amazing person. When he comes into your life, you cannot help but feel joy and peace. Consistently helping others without ever being asked, there is a magnetism that draws you to him. He freely shares time, knowledge, and craftsmanship with anyone and everyone, without ever seeking anything in return. When you meet Rob Jolley, you are a better person because of it.

Rob is hard to describe if you have not met him. Over the span of seven years, Rob never wore shoes so he could be physically grounded to the earth. Developing homeopathic canna medicines, he offered them to all, and they were highly sought after. Rob won the prestigious Cannabis Cup, and was respected throughout the U.S. and Internationally for his growing knowledge. If he found a person that needed his product for medical needs, he would give his product away completely free. That is the type of person that Rob is.

Our gentle giant Rob is now in dire need of your help. If you can spare any amount, you are humbly asked to please donate to help Rob afford the medication he desperately needs to get him back to his amazing and healthy self. More details are below, but if you don't read any further, please, please donate.

Although he has spread positivity everywhere he goes, life has not always been fair for Rob. He won fights against cancer not once, but three times. Those periods of time knocked him down, and he struggled. Though in great pain, you would never have known it. Rob is a person that is always giving, and especially always giving of himself. Rob battled back and returned to the amazing man we all know and love, still sending out his positive vibes along the way. If you know Rob, you know what I am talking about.

After those hardships, Rob found himself in a good space. Living on Cape Cod, doing the things needed to live and grow. Rob has been a glass-blowing artist/craftsman since 1994, and he was able to set up a glass-blowing studio, while also starting to make organic iced teas and lemonades. (Rob always has one or more side hustles going on.) Additionally, he started working out at a local gym intensely, dropping significant weight. He was in the best shape of his life. That is what is so shocking about these current events.

Rob was recently rushed to the hospital a handful of weeks ago with chest pains.

There, Rob learned that he had a virus that was attacking his heart. Overnight Rob went from a fully healthy, functional heart to having congestive heart failure. Currently, Rob is diagnosed with Acute Congenital Heart Failure - Class 3, Stage C-D. The performance of his heart has dropped to below 25%. Our dear friend Rob is lucky to be alive. He is a miracle.

Tests and trials were performed for days and days. After a few weeks, Rob is now resting at his home, but tires quickly. Forced to stay on bed rest, he needs his medication to recover and move beyond the virus and the damage it has done. However, the financial impact is simply too much to bear. Rob’s medication comes at a cost of $3,000 per month. In addition, he needs to cover living expenses without any ability to make an income due to this virus. And, if there are any additional funds and provided he gains the strength to do so, there are a few bucket list things he yearns to do. Meeting friends, closing the loops on old projects, and passing on the knowledge he's gained in his career and his life.

In order to survive, Rob is selling everything. Everything. A lifelong record collection, his full glass-blowing studio equipment, art and posters, canna growing equipment. He is selling it all to stay alive. Everything that he has amassed in this lifetime. Imagine for a moment how hard that is. But yet, it is still not enough. That is why we need your help.

If you have anything you can spare, please donate. If your life has been impacted by Rob, then please donate more. If you can spare a moment, share this fundraiser with folks you feel would be in a position to help. Whatever it is, please help, please share.

A quote from one of the countless people Rob has impacted during his life's journey:

"I love Rob. Great guy. Well known in the canna community. Would do anything he can for anyone. Gives, gives, gives. Never expects anything back. Would give you the shirt off his back. Has always been a great friend to talk to when times are tough. Rob will always support you in any way he can.”

After a lifetime of supporting others and bringing light to this world, please take a moment for this man who now needs our support in return.

Much love and respect to you all.
