<div>UPDATE: March 2025
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Three failed immunotherapy drugs, unstoppable tumor growth &amp; uncontrollable pain have led us to the gates of hospice care. Austin has not been able to find relief from the tumors that are invading his bones and lymphnodes. Despite using combinations of fentanyl, ketamine, lidocaine, methadone, dilaudid, muscle relaxers &amp; nerve medications, he continues to suffer from unpredictable pain crisis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This pain has kept Austin from doing the things he loves &amp; enjoying time with his family for over two months. We are familiar with speed bumps and curve balls, but these new challenges have felt impossible at times.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are hopeful that a new immunotherapy medication may be administered in the coming weeks and could put a hold on the aggressively growing cancer. In the meantime, hospice will manage his medications and allow him to be comfortable at home with us. We pray that he continues to bless us with that big smile and unmatched will to live.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have been surrounded by so much love &amp; support. As you probably can see, Austin is willing to give it everything he has until the very end. We pray that time is not now &amp; that we may have many many more opportunities to make memories with our favorite guy.

<div>Austin was diagnosed with Stage IV Renal Cell Carcinoma in April 2021 at 36 years old. He discovered a small lump on top on his collarbone, which led to a number of biopsies and imaging. A PET scan showed tumors in his left kidney, his pancreas, multiple lymph nodes &amp; in the head of his femur.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Surgeons quickly operated on his leg to reduce the risk of fracture, removed the tumor and strengthened the area with a metal plate &amp; bone cement. As soon as he was able, Austin was started on immunotherapy pills and monthly infusions. Throughout the 18 months of that treatment, he had radiation at different sites for different reasons, and overall the disease was well controlled.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In December 2022, an updated scan revealed a new growth in the head of the pancreas. A plan to change drugs and zap the area with radiation were put into place. Unfortunately, the radiation did not stop the growth of the tumor, but also severely damaged a nearby portion of Austin’s stomach.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ulcerations were found in Austin’s stomach (duodenum) but prescription therapy was not providing any relief. After losing +50lbs in less than 6 months, we were finally able to meet with a surgeon for possible intervention.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The 6 months leading up to this surgery had Austin spending the majority of his day in bed, curled up in the fetal position, despite heavy pain meds. The chronic pain from the ulcers and possibly the growing tumors has kept him from being the amazing dad he’s always been.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our three kids - Benjamin (9) Graham (7) &amp; Austyn (4), have been so brave through all of this, all of us holding on our faith and trusting that God has big plans for us!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Surgery was successful on Friday, June 23rd and included the removal of Austin’s entire pancreas, the damaged part of his stomach, his left kidney, multiple abdominal tumors, his gallbladder and his spleen. Although surgery has significantly lowered his cancer burden, he is not completely cancer free. We are hopeful that information from the excised tumors will help his doctors target therapy in his future.
