Our Father John D. Plymire was Diagnosed with Colon Cancer in Aug. of 2015, He ran his own business up until early of 2016 when he had surgery to remove affected area's that were small enough. He's been in remission since then until last week and confirmed on 4/24/2017 now with lung Cancer and spot on his newly formed liver(half of it was removed last year). The Doctor's are now saying he'll have to be on chemo the rest of his life. Our Father a man who has never asked for a handouts in his life nor wants too is now in need of help.
Our Family has endured a lot over the past few years with cancer. We lost our Grandfather on my mother's side to Cancer six months before our Father was diagnosed the first time, My own Fiancée has even gone through her own cancer treatment and we now have a beautiful baby boy(My Father holding him, his grandson in the picture above). Our Mother Lora K. Plymire has been doing her best to support the family and him working 6 days a week about 10 hrs a day for the last 2 years.
Our Family now with this new diagnoses reaching out for support as our parents have been behind in payments and have been struggling for months. Our father had started a new Job first time working for someone is his life since he's started working for himself almost 20 years ago. Now with this new diagnoses things will only get harder on them again they are already in danger of losing their home and everything our parents worked so hard for. Our Father who has raised my brother Carl C. Sekel, my sister Kaytee J. Sekel and myself Clifford D. Sekel since we were little ones. He is technically our StepFather we however has always thought of him as our father. We're asking for help for our parents if we could rase enough to help them get through this and not be underwater like they have been for almost 2 years now. Our parents are in need of many forms of help, one of which is financial this would allow our parents to keep their house and transportation this is why we are here unfortunately asking for help.
Here are some photo's of our father before going into and after some surgeries and even with his granddaughter my niece visiting him in the hospital.
