My name is Jerel Joseph. Since the fall of 2023, my father Joel has been in and out of extensive care in the hospital after receiving a new kidney. We were told his new kidney carried Lymphoma, a cancer that causes extreme weight-loss and fatigue. It is now September of 2025, and my father is in the ICU, still battling, still fighting, but time has not been on our side.

On behalf of my family, I’m reaching out to anyone who knows Joel and the family, or anyone who feels touched by his story to spread the word and donate if you can. Any small amount helps to combat medical bills and travel expenses for extended family.

I would like to finish by stating that my father, Joel Joseph is a God-fearing man who’s worked for the state of New Jersey for 20+ years. He’d wake up at 4:30 am each morning to commute 1 hour and 30 minutes to and from work with not ONE complaint. He is a role model for my siblings, his 7 children, and 2 grandkids. Please spread the word, even if you aren’t able to donate.
