Support Thomas Bellows' Medical Journey

*Help Support Thomas Bellows’ Final Journey with Urgent Needs*

Hi, my name is Nicole, and I’m raising funds to support my beloved dad, Thomas Bellows, who was recently diagnosed with terminal metastatic melanoma. Doctors have given him just a couple weeks left.

As a family of seven children who lost our mother Joyce in 2016, we’re doing everything we can; to give our dad peace, comfort, and dignity in his final days. He’s in good spirits and still fighting to stay with us, but the emotional and financial burden on us is heavy.

*Why I’m Asking for Help*

My dad has always been the rock of our family a hardworking, kind-hearted man who gave everything for his children and others around him. He’s the type of person who shows up without being asked, and now it’s our turn to show up for him.

Unfortunately, the costs of end-of-life care, medical needs, and funeral planning are more than we can manage on our own. We’re reaching out in hopes that others who’ve known love, loss, or family sacrifice might lend a hand.

*What Your Support Will Do*

Your kindness will help us:

Provide our dad with comfort, care, and the best chance at healing through an immunotherapy trial

Alleviate the daily stress of bills, medical supplies, and urgent appointments

Give him the peaceful, respectful farewell he deserves when the time comes

*Goal Breakdown ($20,000 Total)*

Here’s how your donations will be used:

*$10,000 – Funeral & Burial Expenses*

To cover funeral home services, burial or cremation, transportation, and arrangements that honor his life with dignity.

*$5,000 – End-of-Life & Daily Care*

For hospice care, in-home medical support, transportation, bills, medication, and food during this critical time.

*$2,000–$4,000 Immunotherapy Trial*

Our dad is eligible for a promising treatment not covered by insurance. We’re covering this out-of-pocket in hopes of giving him a fighting chance.

*$1,000–$2,000 Immediate Needs*

Medical supplies, nutritional needs, hospital co-pays, and transportation that stack up daily.

*The Impact of Your Help*

Every single donation big or small helps lift a heavy weight from our shoulders and gives our dad the comfort and peace he deserves.

Even just sharing this campaign can help us reach the kind of people who want to make a difference in someone’s final days. If you’ve ever loved deeply or experienced loss, you understand the value of time, care, and presence.

We are deeply grateful for your support, prayers, and compassion.

With love and gratitude,

Nicole T. & The Bellows Family
