Father coming to the end of his life journey
Donation protected
Hi my name is Amber and i am the god daughter of Robert E Hicks he is 73 yrs old. His 3 children are going to need help. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer back in November 2021 and since then has been in and out of the hospital, mainly due to dehydration and calcium levels elevated. He was undergoing treatments at Vanderbilt until recently now hes to weak to continue. Drs think anywhere between 2wks to 6wks is how long he has left, if he makes it past 2 then he will slip into a coma as bad as the fatigue is.
Robert has no health insurance, no life insurance or anything like that that will be able to help us with funeral and burial arrangements or bills when they come in. They have taken liters of fluid off of his lungs. He stays in a confused state and nothing the drs are doing is helping with it. They are talking alot about which option wud be better at this point comfort care or hospice.
We r asking if u can help in any way whether the donation be big or small to plz help us. We cant do this alone. This family never asks for anything and now they r. I cant imagine losing a parent, they feel lost already.
