Our names are Jessica & Suzanne Hayward, we are creating this fundraiser for our dad, a Navy veteran, retired Swampscott police officer and emt, as he fights MDS and fighting off AML leukemia.

Suzanne has been denied an extended leave to care for her dad. She won't be working into the foreseeable future to care for her dad full time.

Raised funds will still helpr the essential expenses that come with caring for dad around the clock including...

...a lot of new extremely expensive medications, gas as we travel to Boston several times a week for appointments,, food, parking, transportation and utilities.

My dad’s income is not enough to accomplish these goals and purchases and paying his bills.

We still have things left to do. Any donation, no matter the size, and every share of this fundraiser means so much to our family.

Thank you for standing with us and helping us stay beside my dad in his fight for his life.
