Chika's Battle: Cancer and Homelessness
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Tonya Reed, and I'm creating this GoFundMe account for a coworker and her terminally ill husband. Chika's husband has been battling cholangiocarcinoma cancer since 2022, which is a rare and aggressive cancer that forms in the bile ducts. Unfortunately he is not doing well overall with the treatments and is physically fragile with severe and chronic pain. To add insult to injury, Tuesday night they had to evacuate their home and subsequently lost their home to the Eaton Canyon fire.
So now they are homeless living out of a van with very little and dealing with battling metastatic cancer. Please find it in your heart to help her and her husband in this difficult time of their lives. The donations will be used to help them purchase clothing, groceries and other items that they lost in the fire. Thanks for your support and donations.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who has donated and supported Chika and Eric during this unimaginable tragedy. Your generosity has brought immense relief and comfort, allowing them to focus on recovery and rebuilding their lives. We kindly ask that you continue to share this fundraiser with your networks and on social media to raise awareness of their ongoing needs. Every share and contribution helps them get closer to covering medical expenses, basic necessities, and the support required to heal from this devastating event. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean the world to them and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
