Peter Johnson’s Cancer Fundraiser- For Pete’s Sake

Donation protected
I are fundraising for my fiancé, Peter Johnson. He has Stage 4 Kidney cancer and just lost his job and all benefits because if it, including medical which he desperately needs. As you can imagine, his medical expenses are skyrocketing every day.

I too lost the majority of my income and am now only working 2 hours a day. I need to take care of my man!

Without help, we cannot support his medical bills or basic living expenses beyond 2-3 months at best. 

Peter NEEDS to stay close to his medical team here in Sandpoint and desperately need help to do so.

What we need is…
  • Help with medical expenses
  • Help with rent and basic living expenses
  • A flexible remote work for me. I have an array of in-demand skills that transfer to any industry with great references.

Please, please, please share this site in any way you desire… Facebook, carrier pigeon, Goodyear Blimp, a rock through a window, the options are endless! 

Now for some details…

On November 16, 2021, Peter was diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer which has metastasized to his lungs, bones, lymph nodes,  esophagus and more.

His official diagnosis as of 2021 year end is Stage 4, Group 4, T3A Sarcomatoid/Clear Cell Renal Carcinoma.

He has a lot of personal and professional goals and desperately wants to live.

Our families live in Washington state, so we don't have that in-person support from them that is so important in these times.

In healthier times, Peter enjoyed hiking, gardening, woodworking, going to live music, learning the guitar and spending time with me out and about. He is eager to get back to those activities ASAP.
