Hello everyone, my name is Sierra. I’m hoping to help ease the burden of good friends and their family. We share the unexpected news that John Gavin has received a devastating diagnosis that he has Stage 4 Metastatic Adenocarcinoma.
C.A.N.C.E.R has rocked their family's foundation, and the unfortunate reality is that this type of cancer is not curable, but it is treatable to hopefully buy more time.
At this time, we still have so many questions that need to be answered. John will be getting additional scans over the next two weeks to locate the origin site, then we can figure out a treatment option.
John and Megan share two young boys:
Leo turned 4 on April 24th, and Luke turns 2 on the 30th of May. They also have two cats.
John "retired" as a baker from Vesta Bakery after 15 years to be a stay-at-home dad this February. He began feeling unwell in March.
At this time, neither of them are able to work and need to focus on making John as comfortable as possible while they figure out a plan to hopefully buy him some time to watch his young boys continue to grow and celebrate big milestones together. Our hope is to help ease some of their financial burden and provide a little light during this unprecedented time. Megan will be his main caretaker and continue to provide her unwavering love, commitment, and dedication, staying beside him through this unprecedented journey.
John and Megan have been together for 19 years and married for 10 this October.
He is a loving, devoted father and husband. John is a good man, and loved by all who know him. He forever has a genuine smile on his face, even through this unexpected diagnosis. Let’s come together to help support them through this journey. Let them know they are not alone in this and allow them to spend whatever time they have left together.
