The youngest child is 4. I think with six kids the goal is for her NOT to work, and it makes a lot of sense when widowed so young with so many young children. I hope they raise all the money they need. By all accounts he was a really great guy and beloved by everyone who knew him.

+1 I hope they raise enough so she never has to work, and all the costs are taken care of.

Why exactly?

Becuase she has 6 young kids who need their mother to be more present now than ever, not off working. You are as dense as can be. Duh.

And it would make her life easier. I want easy for them.

DUH, people work to support their kids especially if they are a single parent. She's wasted no time soliciting money online. She could also put that ingenuity to actual work for her own money.

You don’t get it. Sad.

While I don't think she should have to go to work next week while she and her children are in mourning, how will the kids get health insurance if she doesn't? Heck, SHE needs health insurance so she doesn't die now that she's the kids' only living parent.

NP- why do you need/want her to work? Why wish a harder life on her exactly? In a perfect world anyone in her situation would be better off not working as they are navigating grief and raising young kids UNLESS they find joy and fulfillment in their occupation.

Yep. I haven't donated but maybe I will just to piss off the malcontents watching the goal increase, mad that 6 kids lost their dad.

+1. Also he was on my tv screen every week in high school on what was a relatively wholesome show. He certainly provided plenty of entertainment to his fans who want to donate a small amount. He seemed like a genuinely kind person.

Goals on GoFundMe automatically increase once the goal is met. That's probably a setting.

Get your colonoscopy. Follow your med team’s recommendations of gold standard treatment.

* Unless you are diagnosed in your thirties or early 40s
* Unless your doctors write off your symptoms as acid reflux or IBS
* Unless the cancer has metastasized to other organs like the liver and the lungs
* Unless you have a gene mutation that makes your tumor less likely to respond to chemotherapy
* Unless your cancer has metastasized and is no longer resectable

Stage 3 colon cancer (is not stage 4) is statistically a beatable cancer. Of course it's not a 100% guarantee.
Get your colonoscopy.

I don't know the full story of his cancer. But I have had cancer that is considered "curable". It has a 90% 5 year survival rate in fact, which is very high. That still means 10 out 100 people DIE FROM THE CANCER. So having a statistically beatable cancer does not save every single person who get the cancer. Statistics are not personal and *someone* is the 1% or 5%. Maybe he was reckless, maybe he didn't get screen at the exact right time, maybe he used juice instead of chemo. I don't know. But what I do know is that everyone is so hell bent on pretending that they are doing everything right, therefore they are safe. Cancer does not always work like that.
