Support for Dad's Care and Medical Bills

My dad is in the end stages of renal failure, and our family is doing everything we can to make sure he receives the best care and therapy possible during this time. Watching someone you love face such a difficult illness is incredibly hard, and we want to make sure his final days are filled with comfort, dignity, and love. My mom has been by his side every step of the way, but the emotional and financial toll has been overwhelming for all of us.

Dad was the 2nd cadaver kidney transplant in New Mexico, and this kidney has lasted him more than 40 amazing years. Our dad has been one of the most generous, loving, and selfless men anyone has had the privilege of knowing. If you know my dad, he has probably helped you or supported you in some way, with a smile on his face and a joke in his back pocket. He has been a loyal brother in the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity at Michigan Tech, a talented engineer, a master wood turner and craftsman, a founding member of the New Mexico Wood Turners Association, and so much more. More importantly, he has been a faithful servant of Jesus Christ, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a loyal friend to so many incredible people in so many walks of life.

The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward helping my mom manage the mounting medical bills and the significant costs of an assisted living facility for my dad. These expenses add up quickly, and we want to ensure that my dad receives the care he needs without my mom having to worry about how to pay for it. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference for our family and help us focus on spending precious time together.

We are so grateful for the outpouring of love and kindness we have already received during this difficult season of life. Your support means the world to us, and we are hoping to further support our mom and dad by helping offset the medical bills piling up and the cost of dad's care. Thank you for helping us provide him with the best care as he lives out the rest of his life alongside his loving family.
