Support Jon's Cancer Journey: Every Second Counts

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jackie. I normally hate asking for help, but my family needs me and I don't know what else to do. Thus, in a desperate attempt to help them, I'm here.

My soon-to-be father-in-law has been fighting stage 4 colon cancer since he was diagnosed in 2018. In this battle, the cancer has unfortunately progressed to his liver and is now in his lymphatic system. He has recently been told he only has 3-6 months to live.

About Jon:
Jon has been married to his loving wife, Dell, for 25 years. Together, they have loved volunteering for their community in various forms. Specifically, each year Jon looks forward to working at the polls, putting smiles on people's faces each year he has been involved. Even this past year, despite his health challenges, he has made the effort to show up for the community.


Additionally, Jon has strived to be a better version of himself to be the best example he can be to his son, Adam, my fiance. He has always wanted to make a better life for his son so that he has not had to struggle the way he had to. Now, Jon's goal is to be by Adam's side when Adam and I get married. Unfortunately, as time progresses, this goal is becoming less of a reality.


Throughout his cancer journey, Jon has been nothing but a champ. He never ceases to amaze those around him with his positivity and determination to keep fighting cancer.


We need your help... Now
Time is of the essence as we want those last few months he has left to be surrounded by love and comfort, free from the worry of financial distress.

Between the crushing medical bills and the inability of Jon to work these past few years, Dell and Jon have been put in an impossible situation. Dell has been their only source of income. Currently, she works as much as she can for both of them to survive, but she wants nothing more than to be with Jon during his last few months. Further, the $10,000 would be put towards paying Jon's medical bills and allow Dell to be with her husband for the time he has left. Anything that is left over will go to funeral costs.

Your generosity will not only provide financial relief, but it will also offer the priceless gift of time. By contributing to this fund you will become a vital part of Jon and Dell's story, providing an immeasurable impact on the quality of Jon's remaining days.

If you can donate, it means the world to us. If you are unable to donate but can spread the word, that would also mean everything to us.



With heartfelt appreciation,
Jackie
