My Travel Story

by: Patrick Mckinney Start Date: Mar 31, 2024 - End Date: Apr 29, 2024
Hello. I'm writing to whoever will listen to ask for help with travel expenses. I live in Oklahoma. The man in the picture is my Uncle Randy. Uncle Randy lives in Georgia. He's a pastor at his church, a community leader, a great husband, and a loyal friend. He is a joy to be around and is the sweetest person I know. He is one of my last living relatives, as my father and grandmother passed on already.  Last month we got the news that Uncle Randy had been diagnosed with cancer and the doctors told him it would be months before anything drastic would happen. He decided to listen to his doctor and last week was the start of his infusion type treatments. The treatment turned out having the exact opposite affect than it was supposed to. It accelerated the progression of the cancer and as of Today March 31, he is being sent home from the treatment center for hospice care and has been told he only has a few days to live. I would like to be able to the take my wife and children to see him so that we may help give comfort during this time for him and our family, and to say goodbye if the time comes when we are there.  We have no idea what the future holds.  This is a great man and he deserves none of this, and we want to be able to express our gratitude and kove to him before he is called home to glory.
