Help Chris Weeks Fight Cancer

Donation protected
I set up this GoFundMe to raise money for my Uncle Chris and his family.

Chris has been sick for a long time now, but he never went to see a doctor because he didn’t want anyone to worry.
He never complained, he just kept it to himself and told everyone he was OK.

About a  week before Thanksgiving, he was so sick and in so much pain that he finally went to the Emergency Department. His life and his family’s life were turned completely upside down. They were blindsided when he received a diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer and lymphoma. The doctor told him that he had 3-9 months to live and that treatment would not be effective for him.

He decided to make an appointment with the oncology department at Duke University Hospital which is about 2 hours from where he lives. He began chemotherapy about 2 weeks ago and he is responding! We are so happy that there is hope now!

He has had a small carpet cleaning business in a small town for many years now with no other employees. They suspect that working with strong chemicals for so many decades has contributed to him getting cancer. He is so sick now that he cannot work and his family has NO income and he cannot afford insurance now. I am hoping to help raise money to help him pay bills, but groceries, pay for the 4 hour trips to get treatment and other medical expenses. 

He he has always tried to help others and put his needs last, lets help Chris now that he needs us! He has dedicated his life to his family and would help anyone in anyway he could. He is one of the sweetest people that anyone could meet. Please, anything would help and we are so thankful and appreciative of any contributions. Thank you from my entire family!
