Help Patrick Donahue Battle Stage 4 Metastatic Colon Cancer

Donation protected
Patrick has begun an extensive treatment journey following a shockingly rapid onset of Stage 4 Colon Cancer that’s fully metastasized into his liver and lungs.

We’re navigating the first chemotherapy cycle at UNC Lineberger Cancer Center, alongside top experts from the University of California San Francisco and also starting to plan with Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York.

Your support will significantly alleviate the financial burdens of treatment, travel, and medications, allowing Patrick to focus on healing.

This first round of treatment, including emergent dental work that is preventing him from receiving the full chemo dosages he needs, is estimated out of pocket at $60,000.

Of course there will be futures phases where more will be needed, but right now this is the minimum we need for this phase.

Anyone who knows Patrick knows that he exemplifies resilience, love, humility, compassion, dedication to family, especially his two amazing sons Sean and Nick, friendship, animal advocacy— including our 6 pack of giant canines, and professional passion.

With unwavering determination, he faces this challenge, and together we feel sure we can all celebrate his triumph. We are deeply grateful for your concern, your prayers and your assistance.

With so much love,
Patrick and Ferrell
