Benji's Journey

Hello! Our son Ben (Benji) is currently battling brain cancer. He is 11yrs old going on 25. LOL

He recently had surgery on the brain stem itself but unfortunately didnt get it all removed considering the extent of the surgery and where it was.

He has a long way to go, we aren't claiming the negativity, the bad news, all the things. Positive thoughts over here. Originally the news we received wasn't good at all. BUT.. God had other plans. With some physical therapy, lots of TLC, we're hoping our boy will make a full recovery. He's our trooper!

Just a week ago we didnt know what to expect.

We have the option to take him back home but we need help financially with alot of things. Being in hospital for nearly 2 months has taken a toll on our family financially, mentally, physically. We're exhausted! We need help with bills of course. We've tried everything possible to get loans, no luck.

Help is scarce these days it seems. This was our last option and I didnt want it come down to asking for help but here we are unfortunately.

He will need a nurse coming in at first, alot of medical supplies, needs that insurance doesn't cover or will cover but we have to pay out of pocket first, then file a claim im assuming. Im new to this!

Basically we truly need help with medical bills, prescriptions, medical supplies, food, bills in general, a nurse coming daily to help tend to him.

We have alot going on and really could use help.

If anyone could please donate it is very gratefully appreciated by our Lil family. We are thankful for all donations we get. Every dollar is a million right now.

Please keep our son in your prayers for healing.

He has a long ways to go but we are praying in the name of Jesus he will be healed and back to his normal, goofy, bubbly self real soon.

Im the sole provider for my family right now. My wife (Molly) has ALOT of health issues herself.

She has put her health to the side and been focusing on our baby boy. Its taken a toll on her.

Stress is no joke. Especially when bills are piling up and you have no way of taking care of it all.

We aren't expecting or asking for much. If anyone can donate a few bucks here or there its greatly appreciated by us. We are forever grateful for whatever we receive.

Life is hard on everyone right now. We understand.

Prayers are appreciated as well. Prayers work!

All donations will go straight to his needs first! As far as home nurse coming in, medications, all the things our boy needs. If we receive more it will go towards bills that have been piling up.

Yes I work! I have been working throughout this journey but I can only do so much. Its like we got hit with 500 things at once. We feel defeated right now.

Thank you all in advance for the love and support and please continue to keep our boy in your prayers.

If anyone can help us out with anything we appreciate it more than you could imagine. If we can get some of this paid and take some of the stress off of us it will help more than you know.

Life is so unfair and we have been so stressed over all of this. Our child is our only priority right now.

His needs comes before anything! That's why im here making this. We need emergency help!

Thank you for your time, prayers and support.

Feel free to message us if you have questions.

We all need a little help sometimes unfortunately.

I didnt go into too much detail about our son, we're mentally exhausted at this point and my mind is all over the place right now I apologize.

If we can gather up enough to take care of his needs and get him home in the next little bit thats good enough for us. We just wanna get him home and on the road to healing ASAP.

Thank you so much.
