 ‼️ Update: It is with a heavy heart I announce that Joseph passed at home this early morning at 1am, April 13, 2023…with his wife at his bedside…
           BRAIN CANCER SUCKS!!!
Long battles with cancer can completely wreck a family and leave them near financial destitution. Now, imagine trying to live and thrive while fighting seizures, brain tumors, craniotomies and cancer for 17 years… ❤️This is my Hero and Brain Cancer WARRIOR-Joseph H Dias. Sadly, Joe was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2005. His brain cancer forced his US Military career of 26 years to come to an end. Joe met the Love of his life-Erin (Smith) Dias in 2007 and they eloped in 2008…just renewing their vows just last month in their church…before God. With tear stained eyes, his beautiful wife Erin and his family are now watching Joe give his 17 year fight with brain cancer over to his Savior and seek Eternal Rest in the arms of GOD. Joes fight with brain cancer is nearly over...hospice is visiting each day now and he has received his Last Rites. With days left…it’s all on Gods time now. His family needs you! Erin needs our help!! This long and arduous battle with brain cancer and a great deal of necessities not covered by insurance, copays, travel and lodging expenses over the years seeking treatments, now utilities to constantly run the multiple machines and contraptions helping keep him comfortable, feeding family and visitors…not to mention their own mortgage and other bills, has left them in financial ruin. Erin herself, has not been able to work since 2018 due to her own health issues that includes a serious heart condition for which she had open heart surgery. They have nothing left. The credit cards are maxed. All cash reserves are gone. This disease has taken everything from them except their Faith, Love and Hope. PLEASE, if you can help Erin provide those last things this Warrior and Patriot deserves, I promise you Blessings in return. Your donations in any amount will also help Joes wife pay down his thousands upon thousands of accrued debt from this awful disease, hoping to enable her to stay in their home, as he specifically wishes. With your help, Erin can keep Joes Family Legacy alive by perpetuating his service to his God, Family and Country and by sharing his inspiring fight with other Brain Tumor/Cancer Warriors, like myself. ❤️The Dias Family sincerely Thanks You!
