Help Robin and Jane with medical expenses

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Elaine I am the daughter of Robin and Jane.
Here is our story......
My dad was diagnosed 4yrs ago with bone marrow cancer and cirrhosis of the liver. Due to his cirrhosis he was not able have a bone marrow transplant and was not able have chemo treatments either. However they had just come out with this pill called Jakify to help prolong the cancer but not a cure. The doctor only gave him 2yrs to live and here we are 4yrs later......
My dad started having complications two weeks ago.... He went in to see his cancer doctor last Tuesday for a routine check up. They did blood work.... My dads white blood cell count was through the roof the doctor admitted him to the hospital. Apparently his Jakify stopped working. By Wednesday night dads lungs were filling up with fluid.
I am going to start summing things up as to what all happened in a short period of time....
His lungs filled up with fluid, kidneys were shutting down, he had a minor heart attack, a blood clot in each leg, he was also diagnosed with a 2nd kind of cancer called acute leukemia, and they sedated him so he wasn't feeling any pain. We the family received a phone call Thursday that they didn't think dad would make it through the night. It is now Wednesday a week later dad is alive!!!! He is awake, talking, knows for the most part what's going on medically, he doesn't have any brain damage from anything that we are aware of, the doctors don't think so either, he still has his personality, and sense of humor. However the bad news we found out today was that he also has a minor anurism in his stomach along with a blood clot. Due to other risks they cannot operate on his blood clot in his stomach with him having this blood clot as well as the ones in his legs he is not getting the proper blood flow to the lower part of his body. This is leading to amputation of both legs above the knee and possibly as far as up to his thigh. However with the blood clot in his stomach it still blocks blood flow so the amputation may not work or heal properly. With all that being said.....
Dad wants to fight!!!! He wants live!!!! He has faith, hope, and JESUS!!!! So that's what we are going to do. We are going to be slammed with all kinds of medical expenses I/We are asking for your help and support no amount is too small anything is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for listening and your support all the prayers we can get are welcomed too.
Thank you again!!!
GOD BLESS!!!
