**Urgent Community Support Needed for Dad's Bile Duct Cancer Battle**

My father, Marty, a kind-hearted and loving individual, has recently been diagnosed with aggressive form bile duct cancer. This devastating news has turned our world upside down, and we are reaching out to our community and friends for support during this difficult time.

Dad has always been the rock of our family, providing love, care, advice, bad dad jokes, and guidance to those around him. He is more than just a father; he is a friend, a mentor, and a pillar of strength. His diagnosis has left us all feeling helpless and heartbroken, but we are determined to fight alongside him every step of the way.

Dad recently found out he has cancer of his Bile Duct earlier this past Spring and upon learning the news I immediately started research on this cancer and the results are pretty devastating to say the least. It's been the hardest pill I've had to swallow because imagining our lives without him is something I've never thought about until now.

The road for Dad's survival has been long and arduous, filled with numerous doctor's appointments, surgeries, and rounds of chemotherapy. The medical expenses are already piling up, and we are worried about how he will keep up with the mounting bills on a limited income. What makes life so much more difficult is the fact Mom is now in a nursing home since last fall due to numerous TIAs and a stroke. It's been extremely hard for me to financially support not only myself and my daughter, but our father as well. That's where you come in – our dear friends, family, and community.

We are humbly asking for your support to help cover the overwhelming medical expenses and daily living costs that have become a significant burden. Your contributions will go directly towards:

* Medical bills, including hospital stays, surgeries, and ongoing treatment
* Prescription medication and home care expenses
* Daily living costs, such as house expenses, utilities, and food, which have become a struggle to afford

We understand that times can be tough, and we are grateful for any amount you can contribute. Your support will not only help alleviate some of the financial stress but also bring hope and comfort to our father during this challenging time.

Dad's strength and resilience in the face of this diagnosis have been an inspiration. He is a fighter, and with your help, we can ensure he receives the best possible care and support. We believe that together, we can make a difference and help him overcome this aggressive cancer.

Please consider sharing this campaign with your loved ones and spreading the word about our father's courageous battle. Every share, every donation, and every prayer counts.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for your generosity. Your support means the world to us, and we are forever grateful.

**Let's rally around our beloved father and show him that he is not alone in this fight!**
