Steven Sherman's Brain Cancer Treatment and Care

Hello friends, family, and new friends here on GiveSendGo! My name is Steven Sherman. I am a retired teacher who has spent the last 20 years in retirement focused on church ministry, from Bible study teaching, to reaching prisoners with the gospel message.

On September 19th, 2022, I was hit by a truck and my car was totaled. I was fortunate enough to come away only with a cut on my head from the accident. However, in the process of getting a CAT scan to check for internal injuries, doctors discovered a 3.3 cm mass in my right lung.

After a few more tests and a biopsy, doctors confirmed with me that I had adenocarcinoma, a cancer with presence around my lungs and heart.

The cancer already had reached stage 3.

If not for the accident, I would not have known as I had no symptoms yet.

I managed to get treatment for my lung cancer and saw tremendous improvement over the past 2 years, with near total elimination of the lung cancer.

However, during my treatment in 2024, it was discovered that I had a brain lesion and brain cancer forming.

Because of this brain cancer, I have struggled with memory issues and normal life functioning.

The doctors have given me hope that a treatment protocol is possible and may extend my life with friends and family.


However, I need help to bridge that gap as I transition to a new treatment.

For example, paying for Eliquis to help reduce symptoms of the brain cancer as I undergo new treatment.

I am in good shape otherwise as I have always eaten healthy, exercised, and stayed away from activities that would worsen my health.

That said, the difficulties being faced are not easy between the treatment process effects and needing extra support to manage life needs.

If you find it in your heart, I appreciate anything you can do to help me cover my costs in getting treatment, transport, and task care.

I am retired and on a fixed income, so every little bit helps with this extraordinary situation.

Thank you so much for showing me love as Christ does.

God bless you,

-Steven

Update #3 Back at home.

February 6th, 2025

Hello my lovely friends and family!

I have been released from the hospital and have been getting much needed rest.

The journey has been difficult, but I am thankful to have made it through.

I appreciate the love, prayers, and kind words you've poured out upon me in my time of need.

Physically, it has been harder for me as my body has weakened after surgery.

I also struggle with my memory a bit, but have been slowly getting better.

I will be seeing my doctor for a post-operation follow-up to see how I can continue to improve my health.

I am hopeful and encouraged thanks to you and your financial help.

Thank you for being there for me.

Blessings and love,

- Steven Sherman

UPDATE for Steven Sherman's hospital stay and recovery care.

February 3rd, 2025

Hello friends and family,

Thank you for your generous support, love, and prayers as I move through the stages of recovery.

After receiving a mesh to capture blood clots in a major vein, I have been moved out of ICU to the regular hospital floor.

I have begun physical therapy and speech therapy to further my recovery.

While my memory isn't as strong as it was prior, I have improved since the cancer was removed.

I appreciate your calls, visits, and prayers as I continue care this week in the hospital and at the Morton Plant rehab facility.

Thank you for your love and kindness.

I love you and hope to see you soon,

- Steven Sherman

Brain Surgery A Success!

January 30th, 2025

On Thursday, January 30th, my neurosurgeon successfully removed my brain tumor.

Fortunately, the tumor was encapsulated in such a way that it did not readily spread elsewhere in my brain.

I am in recovery now at Morton Plant Hospital while pathology analyzes the removed necrotic tissue.

Thank you for your generous love, support, and care, as I continue my recovery process over these next few days in the hospital.

I love you!

-Steven
