Jason's Fight Against Metastatic Cancer

TEAM JASON Needs You!

Hi friends - this is Amanda - and if we haven’t met yet, I am Jason’s wife of 20 years. TEAM JASON needs your help.

Jason is known for his enthusiastic energy, love of life and dedication to his family. He is an amazing husband to me, and an incredible father to our four beautiful daughters- Emily (15), Adison (14), Hannah (12), and Avery (10).

He works hard for our family, is self-employed, and has been supporting our homeschooling efforts for over 10 years. Jason is dearly loved by our parents, siblings, in-laws, cousins, nephews, nieces, church family, neighbors, friends, business partners and acquaintances near and far. So many people love him and look to him as a brother, mentor, son, dad, confidante, teacher, motivator, prayer warrior and friend.

Unfortunately, Jason recently received a stage 4 Cancer diagnosis, which originated in his colon, and has spread to his lower lymph nodes and liver. With this diagnosis comes a series of treatments that he must undergo, and it is unknown how his body will respond. We know that through faith, prayer, and support, God will see us through this, as He has in every other aspect in our lives.

Though this diagnosis at first appears terminal, Jason is a fighter. He will not quit, but this effort will be long and hard for him and for all of us. He will have to endure - living for each month, and Lord willing, for many more years with me and our girls. Though we are being good stewards with what the Lord has provided, the bills are coming in for the foreseeable future.

First and foremost, I ask for you to pray. Pray for complete healing for Jason so he can live a long life with me and our daughters. Pray that he continues to be a light to others with his one-of-kind humor, compassion, joy, and love for the Lord. Pray that as we continue to fight, that this trial will glorify God, draw us closer to Him, and that we would be a light to others.

If the Lord has put it on your heart to help us financially, it is my prayer that you would answer the call. Anything helps - $10 helps to cover a prescription co-pay, $100 helps to cover doctor visits, $500 helps to cover cancer scans, and $1,000 helps to cover general insurance costs and bills over and beyond what the insurance can cover.

Some of his recurring health costs that have come up include:

-monthly health insurance premiums

-deductibles and out of pocket costs

-co-pays at every visit

-prescription costs (that never cease)

In conclusion, thank you to each and every one of you for the inspiring and comforting calls, the meal train support, the persistent prayers, and the love that you continue to send our way. We have never felt more covered in God’s love and completely at peace with this season of life. May God bless you and your family close and be gracious unto you.
