Support Mitchell Brummel's Fight Against Cancer
Donation protected
This GoFundMe is set up to help with medical bills and associated costs for Mitchell Brummel and his fight against Fibrolamellar Carcinoma.
Meet Mitch!
History - Three and a half years ago, Mitch was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called Fibrolamellar Carcinoma. At that time, he had major abdominal surgery to remove primary tumors. Since then, Mitch has been on various forms of cancer treatments, including chemo/immunotherapy combinations every other week, radiology to the neck, and a Y-90 radiation bead procedure.
Even with these treatments, Mitch has continued to have cancer growth and just recently added a new chemotherapy to his treatment plan in hopes of shrinking these tumors.
Recent History - Three weeks ago, Mitch developed severe abdominal pain and went to an urgent care while in Nebraska for a wedding. After returning home to California, the abdominal pain persisted, and Mitch was scheduled for a liver biopsy, which took place 2 weeks ago. This biopsy unfortunately resulted in a liver hematoma as well as a bile duct blockage that landed him in the hospital for 4 days and required another procedure to try to fix it. Mitch continued to have severe abdominal pain and was unable to function normally, landing back in the emergency room.
Currently - Since Thursday of last week, Mitch has been in the hospital and developed a fever and sepsis. He has been fighting off an uncommon abdominal infection. It is unknown at this time how long Mitch will be in the hospital. Many things need to take place before he is allowed to return home, the most important being negative blood cultures.
We, the friends and loved ones of Mitch and Abby, are asking for your much-appreciated donations to help with the costs of medical bills, food, and gas as they travel distances for hospital stays, and supplemental income as Mitch is unable to work at this time and Abby has had to cut her hours at work significantly to be by Mitch's side.
For those of you who know Mitch directly, you probably agree with me that you have been blessed by having this godly man in your life. Mitchell is very bold in sharing his faith, never shying away from sharing about Jesus to any nurse, doctor, patient, or patient care assistant that he might encounter. Through his journey, Mitch has kept a smile on his face and the joy of the Lord in his heart. He continues to be steadfast in putting his mind on Jesus in the midst of pain and continues to pursue a deeper relationship with Him.
We humbly ask for your consideration to come alongside Mitch and Abby financially at this time. Mitch and Abby greatly appreciate prayer support as well as they continue to navigate this journey they are on to improve Mitch's health and continue the fight.
With Much Love and Appreciation,
The friends and family of Mitchell Brummel
