Help Support My Dad in His Fight Against Stage 4 Cancer

Hi, my name is Clark, and I'm raising funds for my Dad, who is currently fighting for his life after being diagnosed with Stage 4 oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Just a couple of months ago, my Dad was still working full-time, providing for his family like he always has. But his health began to decline rapidly, and everything changed. He recently underwent a planned 13-hour surgery to remove his lower jaw in an effort to stop the spread of the cancer. During that operation, doctors also placed a tracheostomy and a feeding tube.

My Dad will not be able to speak or eat on his own for an undetermined amount of time as he faces a long road of recovery, rehabilitation, and continued treatment.

Since his diagnosis, he’s had to stop working, and the financial strain on our family has been overwhelming. To make matters worse, their only vehicle broke down, leaving my parents without reliable transportation for medical appointments, treatments, and daily needs.

We are doing everything we can to support him, but we need help.

How You Can Help
We’re asking for help to cover:

Medical bills and post-surgery care

Repairing their truck and ensuring reliable transportation to and from doctor appointments and treatments

Basic living expenses while my Dad recovers

Equipment and supplies needed for at-home care

Any amount you can give, no matter how small, will go directly toward easing the financial burden on my parents during this unimaginable time. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with others. Every bit of support helps.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for keeping our family in your thoughts.

With gratitude,
Clark
