Together For Pat

Hello everyone

I am reaching out on behalf of our dear friend Pat, who is currently facing the unimaginable: a diagnosis of stage 4 prostate cancer.

As you can imagine, this diagnosis has brought not only physical and emotional challenges, but also a significant financial burden. Despite his strength and resilience, the costs of treatment, medications, and frequent medical appointments are mounting quickly. On top of that, he’s at risk of losing his home due to financial strain. Without support, he may have to move during this incredibly difficult time, right in the midst of ongoing treatments and declining health.

The funds raised here will go directly toward:

Asking for help isn't easy for Pat. He’s spent most of his life being the helper. With 43 years of sobriety, Pat has been a pillar in the recovery community—mentoring, sponsoring, and supporting countless individuals in their paths to healing. He’s shown up for others with compassion, wisdom, and humility, never asking for anything in return. He’s someone who has always been more comfortable giving support than receiving it. But during this time, your kindness and generosity can truly make a difference.

Pat is deeply grateful for any support—whether it’s a donation, a kind word, or simply sharing this page. This isn’t easy for him to do, but your generosity will help ease his burden and allow him to focus on healing, not financial stress. Every donation, no matter the size, will bring him a step closer to stability, comfort, and peace of mind while he focuses on what matters most: fighting this cancer.

Thank you for showing up for him during this time. Your support means more than words can say.
