My father, Leslie Tidwell, is one of the most hardworking and selfless individuals I've ever known. His whole life has been filled with serving others and supporting his own family, even at the sake of his own comfort.

However, he is now the one who is need of support. Just this year, after several months of concerning symptoms and a growth on his lower leg, he has been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic melanoma.

My dad is renting on his own and has been out of work for the past few months due to the pain and discomfort he is dealing with on a daily basis. Due to this, he is now facing multiple hardships: his car is repossession status, the rent payments have been piling up -- on top of the newfound expenses of medications, treatments, and doctors appointments.

At this time, any support would be immensely helpful. We understand that everyone may not be in the position to financially support at this time, but even if you could share this with your loved ones - or even just keep him in your thoughts/prayers.
