Hello everyone we are trying to raisie money for my brother in law to help pay for his bills, medical stuff, gas, food, and anything else that comes with cancer.
My brother in law Robert Lankford went to the hospital the week of May 5th complaining about a headache that wouldn't go away. After test he found out that he had a bleed on the brain and also a mass on the brain. The doctors told him that the bleed needed to be taken care of immediately and will have surgery and that they will do the surgery for the mass once the bleed it taken care of. He did have surgery for both the bleed and mass within a couple days of being at the hospital for what he thought was just a headache/ migraine. They did find a large mass towards the back of his brain and was able to remove about 90% of it and was getting sent for testing ASAP to determine cancer or not.
He remained at the hospital recovering from brain surgery but now has had seizures due to the surgeries. He isn't able to work.
Robbie remained in the hospital and on May 15th got the results that he has Stage 4 Brain Cancer(high- grade Glioma)! What started out as a headache has now turned into Terminal Stage 4 Brain Cancer! As many would he is not taking the news well.
He was then moved to a rehab facility for a couple days to help relearn some things and help with regaining some strength. He is currently out of the hospital and rehab but now has to in someone's care 24/7.
Robbie has had a follow up appointment 5/28 for a CT scan showing that the cancer mass has grown since the surgery only 3 weeks ago! His options are VERY slim and not very well. He is looking at with no treatment 3-6 months....with treatment 12 months. This is all very devastating for everyone at this time.
We are looking for help to help him pay his bills that he can no longer afford. Any money raisied will go directly to his bills, any other cost that comes with a cancer diagnosis. Anything extra will go directly to his kids who shouldn't have to go threw anything like this at their age!
Please help if you can!
