Hi, my name is Dwight Owens. I’m a 37-year-old father of six, and I’m reaching out for help during the most difficult time of my life.
A few months ago, I started experiencing severe stomach pain and could barely eat. After multiple visits to the hospital, I received devastating news — I was diagnosed with Stage 3 esophageal cancer.
Before my diagnosis, I was a full-time CDL truck driver and the sole provider for my family. I took pride in working hard to take care of my six kids and keep a roof over our heads. But chemotherapy has taken a heavy toll on my body. I lost my driving position because I can no longer work consistently. The physical demands of my job are more than I can handle right now.
Since then, everything has started to fall apart. Medical bills are stacking up, and all my household bills are behind. I’ve done everything I can to keep things going, but the financial burden is more than I can carry alone.
I’m asking for your help to raise $40,000 to cover:
• Overdue medical expenses
• Rent and utilities
• Basic needs for my children
• Ongoing treatment and recovery
This fight is far from over, but I’m staying strong for my kids. Any amount you can give — big or small — will make a real difference. And even if you can’t donate, please share this page with others.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your love, support, and prayers.
