My aunt doesn't know that I'm doing this for her.
The father of my aunt's two beautiful children (Timmy and Kelly, ages six and two) is currently dying of brain cancer.
His fight has gone on for over five years now, but sadly the tumor is spreading in his brain. He is currently in his final days here on this beautiful Earth.
As there is no cure at this stage of progression, chemotherapy and radiation do no good. Her husband is currently intubated and has a feeding tube in his stomach to give him nutrients, as eating with a breathing tube is impossible.
With the tube in his throat, he can no longer respond to us. Saying our goodbyes was the most difficult thing we have ever done. Now as we sit, watching his suffering come to a close, all we can do is think of all the time we didn't have. All the things we would never do. All of the monumental moments in these kids' lives that their daddy won't get to see.
This GoFundMe fundraiser will go towards both contributions to funeral expenses, as well as support for our two incredible children as they prepare to walk the world without a father.

It’s so sad thinking that one could go their whole lives living healthy, happy and optimistic, but one word can change everything: cancer.
The kids already know that their father is not going to leave the hospital. I wish they were young enough not to realize what was going on.
This post will probably be buried with a bunch of other posts, but I will pray to god for support & hope for the best. A resteem would be much appreciated. Thank you everyone for taking the time to read this.
