Hi my name is Alanna Peterson and
Back in April 2022 my Dad wasn't feeling well. Mom was working and helping him with what she could to finish a project for work. He would lay on the floor in pain and have to take multiple rests.
In the first week of May, Mom took dad to the ER. They did a CT scan said it was colitis, Gave him antibiotics and steroids and NOTHING helped. Mom took him back to the ER a week and still nothing. After find a GI, they wouldn’t be able to help till SEPTEMBER.
Finally found a GI that would do a scope June 17th saw him. Scope and Tumor found June20th. GI stated if someone would have just done a rectal exam it would have been found.
So here we are as of today my dad has been diagnosed with Stage 3 rectal cancer.
Dad is going to have to do Chemo until the middle of October. Then radiation and then surgery.
Mom has to be there for Chemo. They wont let him drive. She is getting her OTA license up here to do PRN.
We are starting to ask for help we are worried about dad but Zachary too.
Zachary needs to continue with therapy especially now. He is still struggling with attachment still wakes up crying. Mom is moving him to a private school to try to give a sense of normalcy.
My family is in need of help with bills ,medical and life.
As you can imagine he’s lost a lot of weight.. already and will be in need of new clothes.
Mom doesn’t really want to use a site because they do take a portion of the money, so if you would like to do something via gift cards, or Zelle, cash-app or pay a bill directly please reach out to madison or myself for account info or address.
This is a difficult process to go through while trying to take a grip on our new reality. Even if you can’t help, we please ask you PRAY, you send love and send your support because we really need it right now.
If you’ve read through all of this, thank you for your time and we appreciate anything you can help with
