Help Us Rally Behind Dan Mitchell's Cancer Battle
Donation protected
Last week, following a summer of health-related issues involving his back, Daniel Mitchell--our beloved father/friend/husband/innkeeper/Oregon Ducks fan--was brought to the hospital for severe pain and dehydration.
During this stay, his health challenges took a serious turn when Dan was rushed to the ER with severe dehydration and pain. After extensive testing, we received devastating news: Dan has aggressive metastatic cancer affecting his pancreas, liver, and bones.
There are so many things we still need to figure out. In the meantime, Dan is at Maine Medical in Portland, Maine, being taken care of by a team of amazing doctors, nurses, and oncologists, as well as his wife, Cathy, who has remained at his bedside.
The Challenges We Face
We are incredibly grateful that Dan has insurance coverage. However, there are numerous unexpected and upcoming expenses that extend beyond traditional medical costs...especially as a small business owner. And no matter what happens next, we want to ensure he is as comfortable and as well taken care of as possible. Some expenses include:
- Accessibility modifications for their home and inn
- Mobility assistance equipment, including a wheelchair
- Ongoing medical bills and deductibles
- Additional support staff for the inn during treatment
- Travel expenses for specialized medical care
- Miscellaneous bills
How You Can Help
Your support will help ease the financial burden during this difficult time, allowing Dan and Cathy to focus on what matters most: his treatment and care. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference in their journey.
Updates and Support
We'll provide regular updates on Dan's progress through this platform. Your well-wishes and messages of support mean the world to us, and we'll make sure to share them all with Dan.
Financial Goal: $7500
Any funds raised will go directly toward Dan's care-related expenses, helping to ensure he can receive the best possible treatment while maintaining the inn that means so much to him and Cathy.
