Hello, my name is Samantha. I made this gofundme for my dad, Jeff Fitzpatrick. Here is some information about him. He has served his community working as a paramedic for 25 years, until he had to medically retire due to being diagnosed with head and neck cancer. My dad is the most caring person. Anytime someone is in need he is right by your side to help if he’s able to. He loves mountain biking, dirt bikes, basically anything with 2 wheels. He loves the outdoors, being active and spending time with his family & friends.

In December 2020, he was diagnosed with head and neck cancer. He underwent intensive radiation and chemotherapy. On October 12th 2021, he had the opportunity to “ring the bell” symbolizing that his treatments were complete.

Then in November 2021, we received the unfortunate news that the cancer had returned. He was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic head and neck cancer meaning that the cancer has now spread to his lungs.

Since this diagnosis, he has been on multiple different chemotherapy’s. He must go to Stanford for treatment every week with one week break in between.

He recently has not been feeling well and is currently at Stanford hospital receiving care for pneumonia. Due to Stanford being 2-3 hours away from him my mom has had to travel back to get some rest. I am making this in hopes to help with a hotel for my mom to be closer to him, for her food while he’s admitted & to help with hospital expenses to come.

If you know Jeff you know he doesn’t like asking for help, but as his daughter I want to provide any relief I can for them during this time.

Any donations help so much and I appreciate any prayers sent our way!

FITZ STRONG ️❤️
