About this fundraiser

On January 8th, 2025, our family commenced an extraordinary journey of hope, resilience, and transformation as we sought emergency medical attention for our father due to a suspected stroke. Upon immediate admission, medical professionals informed us that his heart was not functioning correctly, with weakened heart muscles and poor synchronization between the upper and lower chambers, resulting in an irregular heartbeat. Following a diagnosis of atrial fibrillation, comprehensive testing ensued, including blood work, X-rays, MRI, CT scans, ultrasound, and colonoscopy, to determine the underlying cause of his heart condition. A large, cancerous mass was discovered in his colon, providing insight into his recent symptoms of illness, weakness, and fatigue. The medical team evaluated the mass, describing it as larger than a fist, and emphasized the need for surgical intervention and chemotherapy to treat the cancer diagnosis of colon cancer. In light of this, we have established a GoFundMe campaign to seek financial assistance in supporting our father's relocation to our home, ensuring a comfortable and prepared environment for his recovery. The forthcoming recovery process promises to be lengthy and emotionally challenging, yet filled with opportunities for growth, potentially involving frequent travel to Cleveland or Pittsburgh for appointments, medical supplies, and other expenses that may not be fully covered by insurance such as a bed with adjustable settings. We appriciate all donations❤️
