My father, Robert Chavez a retired union carpenter (UBC Local 803) in Orange County for more than 25 years is in need of our support.

In early February after visiting the doctor for severe soreness in his ribs, it was discovered that Robert has a large growth on his liver. Even though he has insurance he still must pay a significant amount for medical costs. At the moment his insurance rate is so high he has opted to wait until March 1st for his new rate to begin in order to decrease the amount of financial burden for the expected medical costs. He has been unable to even have medical tests to determine what the growth is.

Currently he is in constant chronic pain which keeps him from laying down at all or sitting for long periods at a time. Since the beginning of February he only gets 2-3 hours of sleep each night due to the immense pain.

The picture above is from his 59th birthday just last month. He loves spending time with his granddaughter, but his pain keeps him from being able to play with her because he is constantly sleep deprived and in pain.

Please donate in order to support his medical costs so he can start treatment as soon as possible, as well as any costs incurred for any needed medical procedures. Whether you can give $5 or more, any amount is greatly appreciated by his loved ones.

Latest Update

Dear Family and Friends, It is with a heavy heart that I must tell you that my Dad, Robert Chavez transitioned last night, March 14th, at his home in Santa Ana, CA with family by his bedside. I want to thank each and everyone one of you who donated money, who spread the word to others, and especially those who kept him and my family in your thoughts and prayers. I can tell you that it made a world of difference to know that a community of love came together in our time of need. For those who would still like to offer financial support for expenses, their will be a fundraiser at the Brea Improv, Saturday April 9th at 2pm. Also we will be hosting a remembrance of his life in Orange County, with date and time TBA. Again thank you for all you have done to support our family in this time of great loss.

Dear Friends and Family, On Tuesday March 1st my Father was checked into UCI Medical Center to get a biopsy and blood test to examine the growth on his liver. The doctors came back on Thursday March 3rd with some shocking news. My Dad was told he has Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer that has spread to his liver, spline, and other organs. They told him that he is beyond surgery or any successful chemotherapy treatment. My Dad has chosen to stay home with hospice care in order to spend time with his family. Thank you for all the support you have given. Please continue to spread the word, send prayers and good energy, and donate to support the cost of at-home care and any post-care financial needs. Thank you all for the support in our family's time of need. I deeply appreciate it.
