Hi, I'm Hannah. I've known the Bartlett family since 2010, and over the years, they've become a very special part of my life. When someone you care about is going through something this difficult, you want to do whatever you can to help. I created this fundraiser to bring people together, show up for Tim and his family, and help make it possible for them to spend as much time together as they can.
At just 58 years old, Tim is facing a battle no family is ever ready for.
Tim was diagnosed with lung cancer on December 5, 2025. From the beginning, he approached his journey with hope, believing he had years ahead of him. He began chemotherapy and continued fighting through the challenges that came his way. Unfortunately, complications and multiple hospitalizations have made his journey increasingly difficult.
Now, nearly a year into this battle, the outlook has changed. What once felt like a fight that might affect the years ahead has become a reality measured in months. Tim and his family are now facing some incredibly difficult decisions about what comes next, with their focus shifting toward his comfort and quality of life.
But if you know Tim, you know he is so much more than his diagnosis.
Tim is a beacon of light to everyone he meets. He's always singing, cracking jokes, and bringing life to every room he walks into. He's the kind of person who makes people smile and keeps the energy up, whether he's enjoying live music or cheering on his beloved Ravens and Orioles.
He is a husband, a dad, and someone deeply loved by the people around him. And right now, those people want nothing more than to be there for him.
Tim's wife, Anna, is taking a leave of absence from work so she can be by his side as his full-time caregiver. His children, Trevor and Cameron, are traveling from Minneapolis, while Marley is traveling from Oregon, all doing everything they can to be present during this time. They want to be there to support their dad, support Anna, and support one another through whatever lies ahead.
While being together is what matters most, the reality is that time away from work, travel, gas, lodging, rent, and everyday household expenses can quickly become overwhelming. We want to help ease some of that burden so Tim's family can focus on what truly matters instead of worrying about how they will manage financially.
Funds raised will help support Tim, his wife Anna, Tim's children Trevor, Cameron, and Marley, and Anna's girls, Lilith and Everly. Donations will help cover travel expenses, time away from work, lodging, rent, gas, and other essential living expenses so the family can be there for Tim, support Anna, help with his care, and most importantly, spend precious time together during this difficult chapter of their lives.
No family should have to choose between being there for someone they love and keeping up with the bills.
If you're able to donate, any amount will help give Tim's family a little more breathing room during an incredibly difficult chapter of their lives. If you're unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser, saying a prayer, sending well wishes would mean just as much.
Most of all, we hope Tim continues to feel surrounded by the love, laughter, and family that mean so much to him.
Thank you for showing up for Tim and his family, for helping lighten their load, and for giving them more opportunities to be together when it matters most.
