Hello friends and family, I’m reaching out today on behalf of my father in-law, Rusty Weed, who has recently received a devastating diagnosis of Stage 4 adenocarcinoma lung cancer. In the coming days, he will begin an intensive 6‑week treatment plan, which includes both radiation and chemotherapy. During this time, Rusty will be unable to work, and our family is preparing for the challenges ahead as we focus on supporting him through treatment and recovery.

As many of you know, Rusty has always been the kind of person who shows up for others—whether it’s family, friends, or anyone who needs a helping hand. Now, we’re hoping to show up for him. We’ve created this GoFundMe to help cover the financial burdens that come with his fight, including monthly bills while he’s unable to work, out‑of‑pocket medical expenses, travel costs for daily treatment, and ongoing support needed after treatment concludes.

Any contribution—no matter the amount—will make a meaningful difference and help relieve some of the stress during this incredibly difficult time. If you’re unable to donate, we completely understand; sharing the fundraiser or keeping Rusty in your thoughts and prayers is just as appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support, kindness, and love. It means more to us than words can express.
