Help for Tim and his family

Donation protected
Tim Brandes is my baby brother. On June 14th, he went to the ER for suspected pneumonia. He left there being told he had kidney cancer that had spread to his lungs. After more X-rays and several appointments, he was given a diagnosis on July 2nd. Stage 4 kidney, lung and bone cancer with a fracture already in the left hip.  He began an oral chemo treatment that Friday.
Today, July 11th, he was admitted to hospice care. 
His birthday is July 29th, if he makes it to that day, he'll be 47. 
Sammy, the little guy pictured, is Tim's absolute pride and joy. He is 2 and Tim and Pat were awarded full guardianship of him May 9th. 
And so the hardship begins...we are raising funds to assist Pat in covering the outstanding medical costs along with inevitable funeral costs. The remaining funds will be used to cover the remaining mortgage costs on their home and property. 
Tim's only wish is that Pat be able to raise Sammy in the home they currently share.
