Help my Dad Fight Cancer

Donation protected
My dad worked 70 hour weeks to put food on the table for us. He crawled around on his hands and knees, developed callouses on his hands and tore apart his body from installing carpet and tile for 20 years. He never missed a day of work, no matter how he felt, to feed and clothe his children.He respects the janitor just like he respects the CEO. He has and will sacrifice anything and everything for the people he loves, including himself. Especially himself.


My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 liver and colon cancer in December 2014. Since then, he has been undergoing an aggressive form of chemotherapy using the medicine Erbitux.

 He had to quit his job because he was going to at least 4 doctors appointments per week and couldn't function mentally or physically at work. Since that time, his COBRA insurance has run out and the cancer has spread quickly. Without Erbitux, the chemotherapy medicine, there is not a lot to hope for. The cancer is very aggressive.

I hope he can defy the odds. This is where I need your help.


My dad has to pay $7000 a week for  the Erbitux chemotherapy medication that has worked for him before! $7000! That's already factoring in a price reduction. Who can afford that?

He cannot afford most insurance plans as he is disabled and Obamacare has incredibly long wait times which we cannot work around at this point because of the nature of his condition.

Help me help him. 

I started this page to cover the cost of any medical bills or chemotherapy because I cannot even begin to cover the cost of chemotherapy or doctor bills.

I refuse to sit and watch him suffer. I will fight with my dad, and for him to the very end. I refuse to give up the fight towards his cancer and will exhaust every way possible to help him. He is the light in my darkness and the rock of our family. Every penny that goes towards this campaign will be used towards his medical bills.

Thank you. Please help me give my father a little longer on earth, one more chance to feel the breeze blow and  feel the sun shine on his skin, and a little more time with his family.
