Standing with Patrick: Fighting Ewing’s Sarcoma
Donation protected
Dear Family, Friends, Neighbors, and Compassionate Strangers,
We are reaching out to you today with a heavy heart and a plea for help. A few months ago Patrick started to experience pain within his shoulder. After much discussion he made the decision to go to the doctor. An X-Ray and MRI were performed which indicated a large tumor located on his scapula. Shortly after these findings Patrick underwent a biopsy.
On March 18, 2024, Patrick was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer. Patrick is 21 years young, an avid hunter, athlete, loving son, brother, and friend.
This sudden and devastating diagnosis has turned our lives upside down, plunging us into a whirlwind of uncertainty and fear.
As Patrick battles this cruel disease, he requires extensive medical treatment including surgeries, multiple rounds of chemotherapy, and follow up treatments. These treatments come with exorbitant costs and limit his ability to work leaving him and his family with medical bills that seem insurmountable.
We believe in the power of community and cannot face this challenge alone. That's why we're turning to you for help. Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a world of difference in Patricks journey. Every dollar will go directly towards his medical expenses and ongoing care, alleviating some of the financial strain, allowing him to focus on what truly matters, his health and his fight against cancer.
As Patrick holds tight to his family, faith, and community, please consider donating and sharing Patrick’s story with your networks.
Patrick, his parents Scott & Kristy, his sister Laura, and family thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your compassion, generosity, and unwavering support.
