Hello, as many of you know, My dad Steven Kailher was diagnosed with Cancer in September of last year. During his pet scan they found a mass in his colon which turned out to be cancer. although the mass was removed successfully during a colon resection in December the cancer was super aggressive ( he was told that if he had waited 6 months, that he would have been dead in 6 months).
He has finished his treatment for the Non Hodgkin's lymphoma, but he needs to continue to take the chemo pill that he has been taking since last October, between the treatments and the pills everyday, he gets run down easily and spends a lot of days in bed. Thankfully he has good days and bad days and the good outweigh the bad. He is fortunate that his work schedule is 3 consecutive 13 hour days a week, but at this time he can only work about 6 hours per day. He is a 100% commissioned employee, which means if he isn't there working/selling, he isn't making any money.. And with that comes the financial burden that he is now stuck with, medical bills are outrageous (already over $20,000) and piling up on top of his everyday living expenses that he is having a hard time dealing with them.
When I told him that I wanted to start a go fund me for him he was very adamant against it, he's too proud he said.. well I think it's time for pride to take a back seat and help him out..
He is slated to start treatment for the colon cancer in October after he finishes up the chemo pills, things will most likely get more difficult for him after that.
