Support Justin's Battle with Stage 4 Lymphoma

Help a Devoted Dad Fight Cancer

Hi, my name is Justin Kuhns, and I’m humbly asking for your support as I face the toughest challenge of my life: a diagnosis of stafe 4 Classic Follicular Lymphoma, a form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This comes after already fighting for years against Ulcerative Colitis (15 years) and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) (20 years), both of which have taken a toll on my body, but never my spirit.

What keeps me going every day through pain, procedures, and uncertainty are my wife and two young daughters, all who are the light of my life. Every smile, every hug, every "I love you" reminds me why I keep pushing forward. I want to be there to walk my girls to school, cheer them on at sporting events, and one day, watch them grow into strong, compassionate women.

Over the years, I've tried to manage these chronic illnesses while working, supporting my family, and staying as strong as I can. But with this new cancer diagnosis, the physical, emotional, and financial strain has become overwhelming. Treatment for lymphoma involves frequent medical visits, biopsies, chemotherapy, and ongoing monitoring — not to mention the complications added by my pre-existing conditions.

The financial burden is heavy. Between out-of-pocket costs, reduced ability to work, travel for care, and basic family needs. That’s why I’ve created this GoFundMe — not because it’s easy to ask for help, but because I know how powerful community can be when someone is struggling.

If you can donate, no matter the amount, please know it goes directly to support my fight against cancer and helps provide a sense of stability for my daughters during this incredibly difficult time. If you can’t donate, sharing this with your network or sending prayers and positive thoughts is equally meaningful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I’m fighting with everything I’ve got — for my health, for my family, and for the hope of a brighter tomorrow.

With deep gratitude,

Justin Kuhns
