Jordan Dobrowski Pancreatic Cancer Treatment Fund
Donation protected
Details:
Jordan has been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer, one of the most aggressive cancers.
At 31, he's the youngest patient UCSD specialists have seen with this condition, not to mention the most physically fit. These are factors that will work in our favor, and with your help, we plan to beat the odds.
Many know Jordan from the beach where he plays volleyball— eating his endless supply of chips—, from work where he passionately pushes others to succeed, or from friend/family events where he's always shared his cheer and loyalty. He loves going to bonfires with his friends, meeting and getting to know new people, traveling around the country regardless of where it was, and spending time with his family. He has always lived the life he loves and has never declined to share that with others, with us.
He needs our help now: our support both emotionally and monetarily, our love and kindness, and the joy and entertainment we can offer.
Treatment:
He has started the strongest form of Chemo, changed his diet, takes a plethora of supplements, and will be treated with unique form of cell-therapy.
We are also exploring other radical/experimental treatments. These have the most promise, but aren't covered by medical insurance.
Everyday we are learning more, and treatments may change based off new information.
Donations and Fundraising:
All money donated and raised goes directly to Jordan to help with medical expenses and medical related needs such equipment, services, and/or accessibility requirements.
As it becomes more difficult for him to work as he goes through Chemo, some of the funds will be appropriated toward living expenses and in-house care.
We appreciate anything you can give, and thank you for your support of our dear friend, brother, and son.

UPDATE: 12/24/21
Thank you all for sharing your love with Jordan. We and he appreciate all the support you’ve shown, and the success of this GoFundMe is a tribute to the many lives Jordan has positively impacted.
Update: Jordan’s Chemo was the most aggressive form of treatment out there. Unfortunately, his cancer is equally aggressive. After a week of surviving the treatment, the doctors took additional scans to assess its progress. His specialists have determined his condition is terminal.
Based on the options and the new prognosis, Jordan decided to enter hospices on 12/14/21. He’s been given the equipment, medication, and support to live comfortably. Jordan plans to utilize his option under the California Life Act to ease his suffering before his disease becomes too debilitating.
Thanks to all our donations, his family will not be burdened with medical bills or the cost of his comfort, something Jordan is eternally grateful for. He wants to spend his final days with his family. He asks we understand his wishes and know he can’t see everyone or contact everyone before he goes.
He sends his love to you all.
