On January 13, 2026, my life changed in an instant. I was rushed into emergency surgery, and when I woke up, I learned that a 7" tumor had been removed from my intestine. The doctors gave me an unofficial diagnosis of colon cancer, and I am now facing a long and uncertain road to recovery. The possibility of having to retire from a job I love is weighing heavily on me, and the future feels overwhelming at times.

As I focus on healing and navigating the challenges ahead, I am unable to work for the foreseeable future. The financial burden of medical bills, daily expenses, and the uncertainty of what comes next is daunting. I have set up this GoFundMe to help ease some of that stress so I can concentrate on getting better and taking care of myself during this difficult time.

If you are able to help in any way, your support would mean the world to me. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I take on this journey. Thank you for being there for me and for any kindness you can share.
