Let's Help Craig Fight Cancer
Donation protected
Craig was diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma or Esophagael Cancer in January.
He has made several trips to Birmingham to validate the diagnosis and has since started treatment with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation to shrink the tumor. The plans still are 3 more weeks of treatments as currently being given. He will then rest for 6 weeks to regain strength, regain anything that the treatments have destroyed that he needs and then have the surgery. This will be done in Birmingham by 2 surgeons, a thoracic surgeon and an oncologist surgeon. It is a very extensive and complicated surgery (esophagogastrectomy) but we still have a ways to go before then.
The doctors are looking at 9 - 12 months before he can return to normal but with a lot of prayer, we are hoping for sooner.
We thought he might be able to work a little longer to he had to quit the same week that he started chemo/radiation. The short term disability is not much and the expenses has risen.
Please do what you can to help this family and if you aren't able to financially, please keep Craig in your prayers.
God Bless You All!
