Stand with Sean in his Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer Battle

Donation protected
Our beloved son, Sean, was recently diagnosed with classic Hodgkin's lymphoma nodular sclerosis stage 2a. This diagnosis came the day after Thanksgiving 2024 and one week before his 40th birthday. We were all in disbelief! Despite the challenges ahead, Sean remains very positive and optimistic about his treatment journey going forward. His doctor has advised him to start chemotherapy every two weeks for six months. His chest port was put in, and he just finished his fourth chemotherapy infusion. He continues to work for now but may soon have to stop due to chemotherapy treatment side effects. Once Sean stops working, he will apply for Social Security disability. If he receives it, it will be used to pay his household bills and food. He has medical insurance, though his co-payments are large. His treatment thus far has already amassed to over $11,000 that he now owes. That's not including what he has already paid in co-payments.

Any financial assistance will help to alleviate any stress of Sean's worrying about his security and stability, allowing Sean to concentrate on healing his body. Asking for help can be so intimidating. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a meaningful impact on his cancer journey. Please share this far and wide.

Any funds donated will go towards medical bills and his cancer treatment, plus traveling to appointments. I'm sure you can understand the added stress this can have on one's life.

Thank you for reading about Sean's cancer journey on behalf of myself, his mom; my husband, his stepdad Joe; his wife Samantha; his brothers Andrew and Jordan, his sister in law Kim; and of course, Sean.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your donation means the world to us all and is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The Penna and Taylor families!
