Turning 50 should be a time for celebration, a significant milestone, a time of joy. This year, however, on Blaine’s Pickett’s 50th birthday, he and his family received some heartbreaking news. He was diagnosed with stage-4 lung cancer that has metastasized and spread to his brain. This devastating news has come as quite a shock to friends and family. His future course of chemotherapy and radiation will be expensive and debilitating. Blaine is the father of two incredible teen daughters, Megan 13 and Jocelyn 16. His wife Courtney, a teacher, is now faced with being a full time care taker as well as the family’s main source of income.
A GoFundMe page has been set up:

Your donations will help pay for medical bills and basic needs.
We want the Pickett family to know they are not alone. There is a caring community out there wanting to help. Even the smallest donation is greatly appreciated. Together we can make a difference for this beautiful family. Please help if you can and share this link with others.
