We truly thank you and appreciate your support. The Story of Bradley Eiler - As told by Jacqueline Norris Bradley Eiler, 47, was diagnosed with stage 4 Metastatic Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma two years ago. "Currently, I have tumors in my right kidney, which is my only kidney, left lung and pancreas. The doctors have noted the cancer may be in my left hip, vertebrate, back of the skull and lymph nodes," Eiler said, adding his type of cancer is extremely resistant to traditional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. Eiler and his wife's two oldest children are biological, aged 24 and 26, and their five youngest children, ages 4 to 11, were adopted from the Foster Care system. In preparation for his treatment, the couple have taken steps to down size so Eiler's wife and children can have a better chance to survive with only one income. It has taken them two years to get to a point where they can sell their home in Tallahassee because Eiler has been in and out of the hospital. He hasn't been able to secure life insurance because he was diagnosed with cancer when he was 25. At that time, the doctors were able to remove the cancer along with his left kidney where the cancer resided, but, like cancer often does, it surprised us when it came back after about 22 years. Eiler’s family and friends have all pitched in to help take care of children, complete house projects so they can sell, and donated time and money in many other ways! "During my treatment my wife will not be employed and will have to transport me back and forth to the treatment center," Eiler said. "She will have to stay there with me as much as possible, especially for those important decisions I may not be able to make for myself." Eiler and his family are trying to arrange for treatments at Shand's Hospital in Gainesville, but for now are asking for prayers and any kind of support.
