Support for Keith Nicolle and family as he battles cancer

Donation protected
As many of you know, our dear friend Keith was diagnosed with gastric cancer in December of 2023. The news hit hard, but Keith faced it with incredible courage. He immediately began chemotherapy, followed by surgery to remove his stomach. His treatment continued with additional chemotherapy and radiation, which he completed in July 2024. For a while, Keith felt better—he gained some weight, spent quality time with his family, and even managed to finish a few home projects.

Keith was eager to return to work and start living a more normal life again. He did just that in October 2024, but soon after, he began experiencing excruciating back pain. After further tests, doctors delivered the heartbreaking news: Keith’s cancer had returned, but this time, it was diagnosed as incurable. Surgery is no longer an option.

Despite this devastating setback, Keith remains determined to fight. He is currently consulting with physicians to determine the best course of action moving forward and is exploring every possible option to extend his life. Keith has made it clear that he is willing to travel anywhere in the world to pursue any clinical trial that could offer hope.

On November 25th, Keith received positive news: he was accepted into a clinical trial at the prestigious Princess Margaret Cancer Center in Toronto scheduled to begin in December 2024. While this is an amazing opportunity, it comes with the financial strain of travel, hotels, medical expenses, and further disruption to family life. This is a burden that Keith and his family should not have to bear alone.

We are reaching out to all who know and love Keith to offer support during this difficult time. Keith is one of the most humble and positive individuals you will ever meet. His unwavering strength throughout this journey has inspired everyone around him, and it’s time for us to show him the same support and kindness.

No donation is too big or too small—every little bit helps Keith and his wife, Jess, navigate this ongoing battle and focus on what is important: his health, treatment, and spending quality time with Jess and his family.

If you are unable to donate, we ask that you please keep Keith and his family in your thoughts and prayers. Your support means the world to them.

Thank you for standing with Keith and his family during this incredibly difficult time.
