Standing with Jeff During his Cancer Journey

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

I'm creating this fundraiser on behalf of my brother-in-law, Jeff, who is facing another serious health crisis and needs support so he can focus on healing instead of financial survival.

In the spring of 2025, Jeff bravely fought and survived Stage 2 breast cancer, undergoing surgery and radiation. After months of treatment and recovery, we hoped the worst was behind him. Unfortunately, he has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and is currently doing targeted radiation therapy. Just today, he learned it's probable he has a second, more aggressive blood-borne disease/cancer, requiring ongoing testing, frequent medical appointments, and treatment.

Due to chronic fatigue, shortness of breath, and the physical and mental toll of his condition, Jeff has been unable to work for several months. At the same time, he is recently divorced and now managing life as a single-income household with no current income stream. Medical bills are piling up, and basic living expenses like housing and utilities have become a constant source of stress. He is deeply worried about losing his home while trying to fight for his health.

No one should have to choose between paying medical bills and having a place to live—especially while battling a life-threatening illness.
