Help for our dad, Carl Opperman!
Donation protected
Hi, I'm here hoping to get some help for my dad, Carl Opperman. Unfortunately, he was recently diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He's been suffering with overwhelming stomach pain for months which, on top of that, makes it hard for him to eat or even want to eat. In return, as most of us know, he's lost quite a bit of weight! He tried telling his doctor of his pain, but it was assumed it was from a medication he was taking, then he ended up going to the ER, everything looked good there as far as they could see. Finally, he couldn't take the pain anymore and made the trip to Iowa City where he found out the devastating news. He was kept there for a few nights as they did tests, biopsy, etc. And has made several trips since. He has also had a fews appointments with another doctor with a different approach to this, as well. There has been things covered by insurance and other things they don't cover so far. So with all this, my brother, Wyatt and I are hoping to help raise alittle something to help him out with some of those expenses that are not covered by insurance. And honestly anything would help and be so appreciated Thank you
