My name is Kristen, and I'm fundraising to help my dad, David Thomas, who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 small cell lung cancer. Unfortunately, the cancer has spread. The doctors explained that the cancer is aggressive and that our time is limited. Hearing that was heartbreaking for our family, but we’re determined to make every moment count and to give him the care, comfort, and dignity he deserves.

It is difficult to ask for help, but right now it is truly needed. The reality is that the financial strain is overwhelming on my parents. Between medical appointments, treatments, transportation, and basic living needs, the costs are already piling up quickly.

I’m asking for help because I want my dad to spend the rest of his time focusing on comfort and love. Not bills, stress, or going without things he needs. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward his medical care, pain management, travel to appointments, and essentials he can’t go without.

If you’re able to donate, share, or send a kind message, it would mean the world to us. Your support gives us more time, more peace, and more moments that we can hold onto forever.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping my dad during the hardest fight of his life.
