Support Joshua's Fight Against Thyroid Cancer
Donation protected
Hi, we're the Reinig's, and we're reaching out on behalf of our family as we navigate an incredibly difficult chapter in our lives.
Joshua was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer. As the head of our household, Josh has always been our rock: strong, hardworking, and endlessly loving. He finds peace in nature and has always loved spending time outdoors, whether climbing, camping, or simply enjoying the fresh air at the Zen Cave with his kids. But his diagnosis, along with the physical toll of this disease, has made it hard for him to do the things he loves.
This battle comes after an already heartbreaking couple of years for our family. We are still grieving the loss of our oldest son, Hunter, who passed away two years ago, as well as Josh's mom, who passed away the same year. The emotional weight has been overwhelming, and now with this new diagnosis, we are facing not just emotional but financial strain as well.
We live in the small town of Lone Pine - a place of incredible beauty and tight-knit community. But one of the challenges we face is that it's hours away from the nearest specialists, surgeons, and treatment centers. This means long drives, time away from work, and added travel expenses just to get Joshua the care he needs.
We're doing everything we can to stay strong and keep moving forward, but we need help. Donations will go directly toward Joshua's growing medical bills, travel costs for treatment, and basic living expenses while he's unable to work.
If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing our story. Your support - whether through kindness, prayers, or financial help - means more than we can say. We are so grateful for every single gesture.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
With love,
Mel Reinig and Family
