Support Wayne's Battle Against Cancer
Donation protected
As some of you know my husband Wayne has been battling prostate cancer. He went through 28 rounds of radiation. He has to take Lupron shots every six months for two years to hopefully stop the growth of any more cancer in the prostate. When he was first diagnosed with the prostate cancer they had us go to Paducah and have a pet scan. When the results came back from the pet scan he was diagnosted with a (GIST) that is a Gastrointestinal stromal tumor. He was then sent to Evansville indiana for further testing. The Doctor there stated the tumor was located in the fundus of his stomach.
Wayne continued to work (driving a truck gone for six days at a time) but he recently has started having some gastrointestinal pain, and difficulty eating. He has not been able to work since August 16th of this year. We spoke with his Gastrointestinal doctor and she referred us back to the Cancer center and a surgical oncologist there. Wyane is now scheduled for a ct scan on August 30th as well as other appointments to see what can be done with his tumor. We are looking at them removing the tumor at some point soon but in the mean time he is not able to work.
The cost of his medical exspenses and our every day bills / groceries are still growing, I do work, but what I bring in does not cover much. We are asking for any help you could possibly give. We understand if you are not able to help. We would also accept all your prayers for God to intercede in our situation.
Thank you all so very much,
Wayne and Tammy
