We are reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits to support someone very dear to us all - James Renfrew, who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer. As you can imagine, the toll of this journey is overwhelming. James is not just a friend, father, husband and brother...he is a fighter, a true light in all of our lives and someone who has always given selflessly to others. Now it is our turn to give and show him our support & love. James's oncologist wants him to be on a Ketogenic diet, because it has proven to slow the growth of tumors. Along with Jenna, we have found a chef who will be able to provide the correct nourishing meals to James and his family. His treatment begins at the end of April and we are looking to support them during this first treatment phase and longer. Being able to nourish the Renfrew's, as long as needed, is the goal. Our hope is to raise funds that can be used monthly - donations can be made for a single donation or on recurring monthly basis. 

Together, this community can help ease the burden and show James, Jenna, Jake and Taylor that they are not alone in this fight.

Please join us & please share this with those who love James and love the Renfrew's - we know there are many.

Much Love,

Kim Berg & Kathy Smith

Hello Friends & Family of the Renfrew's,

James had his MRI this morning at the Mayo Clinic to establish his new baseline.  His Oncologist relayed the GREAT news that there has been NO detection of tumor regrowth!!!!!!

Both James and Jenna wanted to say thank you for all your love and support which they are both truly grateful for.   

James will continue with chemotherapy in conjunction with using a device called Optune which he will wear on his head 20 hours a day.  The devise emits low intensity electrical fields to disrupt cancer cell division. 

Thank you again for all the love, kindness and positivity you all are sending their way. Keep the good vibes coming as James continues onto his next phase of treatment. And please continue to share this link to those who want to support Team James.

Hello All ~ James finished his 6 weeks of treatment today and rang the bell to celebrate the end of this round of treatment.  Everyone’s love and positivity has truly helped him climb this mountain.  He is now able to take a little bit of rest and get strong for the road ahead.  Please continue to send your love and share this link out to others.  💜

Hello Friends & Family of the Renfrew's,
 
We have hit our goal!!  James and Jenna are speechless and so full of the love from each and every one of you.
 
We wanted to give you an update on James.  He and Jenna have been exploring experimental treatments with the help of a private health management company. As you can imagine, these treatments and services will be costly.  Based on this, we would like to increase the target goal to $100,000. Jenna & James have decided to use the current donation of funds to cover the initial costs of the medical services. They are truly so very appreciative of your love & support. 
 
Please continue to share this donation site on your social platforms - Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, etc.  Also, as a reminder there is a feature to set up a monthly recurring donation.
 
Thank you again for all your support to James, Jenna, Jake and Taylor.
 
Best Regards,
Kim Berg & Kathy Smith
