7/31/25- Final Blood transfusion happened this morning. Tod will be coming home this morning.

We are $300 away from cremation cost being covered. Once we reach that i will be disabling the Go Fund Me.

Once again we appreciate everyone's support in all ways.

7/30/25- Tod will be released home from the hospital tomorrow 7/31 on Hospice care.

We want to thank everyone for all the thoughts, prayers, shares, donations and all the things in between thus far; it is greatly appreciated.

For visiting please contact Jake or Zach prior to so we can attempt to stagger visits in hopes of not overwhelming Tod all at once.

Tod was in remission of Hairy Cell Leukemia for 15 years. It unfortunately came back, and Tod has been undergoing treatment for 2 months in the hospital. Unfortunately, Tod's body is no longer strong enough to withstand further treatment and has been receiving blood transfusions, which is the only thing that has been keeping him with us. As of 7/28, Tod and the family have been given the notification that there is no further treatment that can be given to help him kick cancer's butt this time around. Tod has a life expectancy of 1 week.

Tod's final wishes, beyond making final memories with his family, is to be cremated. This will cost $2,000. The family is asking for assistance with this unexpected financial situation. Every penny is greatly appreciated.

Once Tod has left us earthside, we will be putting together a Celebration of Life. Details will come at a later date.

Tod is a father of 2, stepfather of 1, grandfather of 5, stepped-up father to many, and a father-in-law to 2, along with a brother and son.
