Tom and Mary (Rude) Swinburn, are currently going through a rough patch and I’m hoping to raise funds to help out with their mounting bills.
Tom was diagnosed with Stage 3 colo-rectal cancer in April 2021. He underwent 8 weeks of chemotherapy and 5 full weeks of radiation, surgery followed in late December. Unfortunately, a new spot has shown up in his lung during a recent scan, he’s scheduled for surgery March 7th to remove it. He’ll also need another surgery in the near future to re-route his colon.
Tom just recently went back to work but had been unable to work for the last several months. Mary has worked as much as possible while also caring for Emily. Tommy has also been a huge help with watching Emily too.
Tom and Mary have insurance, but as we know it doesn’t cover everything, they have large out of pocket expenses and the bills keep coming in.
All funds donated will go towards medical bills and living expenses.
They would like to thank those who have already helped them financially, with gas gift cards, meals for Tommy when they’re gone to Rochester and with watching Emily.
Thank you in advance,
