Julie
FROM GEORGIA
Hi my name is Julie. I care for my husband George. I'm his fulltime caregiver. He was diagnosed with lung cancer December of 2015. He is quite the fighter. He has always been a good provider and an awesome father. He worked as a stone cutter for the past 25 years and put in many hours of overtime so I would be able to be a stay at home mom. We have the wonderful kids together. Amy is 25, George jr is 27 and Christopher is 30. They have been a big help to us. They help out with doctor appointments when I'm unable to be there and the yard work. I'm not sure what I would do without them. So far the cancer is in remission after chemo and radiation. It has took its toll on George's body but the doctors seem to think he's getting better each visit. I'm hoping by the end of summer he will be able to go to the family reunion with us an hour away. He is one of the sweetest men I know. I love him with all my heart.
