Hi Friends!

In 2022, my family was hit with tragedy after tragedy. In June, my dad was diagnosed with esophagus cancer, forcing him to retire from his dream career in construction management. By the end of the year, it became terminal by spreading to his liver, and the doctor advised we had little time left. We set off to complete many bucket list items for my dad in between his hospital trips. After a year of intense chemo treatments, my dad went into remission, to which we celebrated beating the terminal diagnosis! Unfortunately, a hiccup with insurance caused him to miss a couple of treatments, and the cancer has come back even fiercer. This round is taking its toll on all of us, and we're doing our best to stay positive. That being said, it has been very difficult to admit we need help.

We have been struggling as a family to stay afloat and give my dad the care he needs and deserves. My dad has been the main provider for our family, and the sudden loss of support has left us in the pits. I am asking for donations to help with the medical debt we have accrued for his care, to help pay for future treatments, and to assist with any end-of-life ceremonies. It is painful to consider the possible future, but I am hoping to make the end of his life as enjoyable as possible so we can cherish our time together without stressing about where our next meal will come from or what debt will come for us first.

If anything, please hug your family and friends. You never know! <3
