He Survived Cancer but the Fight Isn't Over!, organized by Melissa Nelson 01/31/2023

For my brother 💙 Please help our family.

UPDATE: "I'm trying my best right now but I need help. My sister setup a new GoFundMe and if you're able to help, I would greatly appreciate it. I have complications right now with an infection in my right leg and it's not clearing up. I'll most likely be back at the hospital again in the next week or two for surgery that will keep me there recovering for three weeks or so again. I wanted to get back to work, I had a application filled out and ready to hand in. The reality is I just can't do it. I'm worse off than I ever realized and I'm basically bed ridden. Maybe I'll recover fast after this next surgery and be good to go, I must stay hopeful. I really just am over all this though. Please, I just want to get back to a normal life. I'm embarrassed to ask again but I really need the help. I was able to pay February rent one day before it was due. How did this happen? I was doing really good a year ago. Just know I'm trying, I'm positive, and I'm hopeful. I appreciate anyone who is able to help, even if it's just sharing my link or giving some advice on how to get my story out to strangers who want to help.
If they didn't have to remove these lymphnodes, I really feel i'd be back at the grind. My body is just having so much trouble trying to heal up.
I have a lead on a work from home job but need to put a resume together. I'm hoping that after I'm home from this next surgery I'll be able to move forward on that and hopefully start working again.
So there is hope. I'm hopeful this will be the end of the complications and this next surgery can be my last for awhile.
Thank you Melissa for setting the gofundme up cause we all know I would not have done it again.
Thank you to everyone who is able to help even if it's just a little.
If you wanted to send a donation directly, I will post links below.
