I have started this GoFund me to help my parents during this journey. As most of you know on December 26 my dad was diagnosed with brain cancer. Two days later he had brain surgery to remove the left tumor which was successful but has left him having to learn how to talk and swallow again. He still has 2 tumors on the right side of his brain and several lesions. They performed a biopsy on the tumor removed and the diagnosis was astrocytoma glioblastoma. This is an incurable cancer so the doctors say, but we know God can do mighty things so we are relying solely on prayer and God's mighty healing. Since his diagnosis he was in rehabilitation for 2 weeks after being in the hospital 1 week to heal from surgery. He has to have physical, speech and occupational therapy. He is able to walk some but not for long periods of time and requires a wheelchair primarily. We again are praying in time God heals all of these issues. He is currently on a feeding tube since he is unable to swallow without aspirating. So a feeding pump has been required. Thankfully his insurance did cover those items but the food itself is not covered and there are bills from both facilities from what insurance didn't cover. As of Friday we have brought him to M.D. Anderson Brain and Spine in Houston, Texas where we feel God led us to give him the best care and quality of life possible with his diagnosis. He will start radiation here for at least 4 weeks and then they will see what is needed from there. Anyone that has ask to help is free to give here or directly to my mom through Venmo. But the most important thing you can give to dad is hard and faithful prayers. Thank you all for your care and love ❤️
