Ted’s Story
For those of you that know Ted Grasser, you know a guy full of life, full of passion and a guy who lives his life to the fullest each and every day. In the fall of 2018, Ted and his family received unimaginable news when they got word that Ted had Stage 4 colon cancer. Soon after, the doctors proceeded with a number of different tests to determine the root of the cancer and possible treatment options. They believed that the cancer had started in his appendix, moved to a remote portion of his colon and in turn, created a cancerous fluid accumulation in his stomach region. Without treatment, Ted was given a few months to live.
With determination, Ted elected to start chemo in an attempt to shrink his cancer to a point in which he could be surgically operated on. With only a few treatments of chemo left, Ted was provided with a feeding tube to assist in his nutrient and fat intake. This tube would be beneficial in allowing him to eat when everything else ingested orally became intolerable.
In the past week, Ted’s cancer took a turn for the worst and he has decided to stop chemotherapy.
As we all know, financial pressures build up quickly when work is no longer an option. During this difficult time, Ted’s eldest daughter Brittany has taken a leave of absence from work in Brampton so that she can be with her father. Donations would be greatly appreciated to help ease the added stress put on the family at this time.
Thank you.
