My name is Phil, and I never expected a routine doctor visit for a migraine to change my life. When my doctor told me I might have cancer, I was shocked and scared. After more tests, I learned I have a mass in my bladder, and I’ll need to take at least a month off work to focus on treatment and recovery.

As if that news wasn’t enough, the very next week my car died. I had to replace it so I could keep working and get to my appointments, but that wiped out the small financial cushion I had. Now, with medical bills and everyday expenses piling up, I’m worried about how I’ll make ends meet while I’m unable to work.

I’m reaching out for help because I know I can’t do this alone. Any support—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing my story—would mean the world to me as I focus on healing. Thank you for being part of my community and for considering a helping hand.
