My Time Is now Or Never
The “Get rrr Done” Party of America Does Mississippi
A Stage 4 Road Trip to Save Democracy
Like millions of Americans, I’m sickened by the lawless Republican takeover. Our democracy is in grave danger. The midterms may be our last chance to turn the tide and certainly my last chance. In February, I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer that has spread to my bones and spine. I was given one to two years to live. That was eight months ago. So instead of waiting for the end, I’m choosing to end with meaning.
I can still drive, sit, walk a bit, think clearly, and speak clearly. So I’m going to do all of that.
The question is… What can I do with my remaining skills and time to have purpose and make a difference?
If you guessed that I am going to Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas to engage in direct thoughtful one-on-one political discussions with the locals in ruby red counties… you would be 100% correct.
I’m heading to Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas — county by county — to talk directly with local Republican voters. I’ll bring a "Get rrr Done" Party of America banner, two chairs, coffee, cookies, facts, humor, and an open heart. My goal? One-on-one conversations about truth, priorities, and the real consequences of elections. Three states is doable in three months as long as my funding and health hold out
You can’t grow cotton without seeds — and this mission is about planting them.
Mississippi is the poster child for failed Republican governance. It ranks last in education and near the bottom in every quality of life category. Surely some families there want better for themselves. I’ll encourage them to vote in their own interests — for the sake of all of us.
I'll send video and email updates from the road to my sponsors. This is my way to live my remaining time with purpose, dignity, and humor — and maybe, just maybe, help save this country I love by being one point of light.
For the record, I was supposed to be working in Europe right now enjoying life while riding out Trump rule. May 1st was my departure date and now, shockingly, my only goal is simply to live what life I have left with meaning, purpose, and dignity. Humor and good times are welcome as well and this mission is sure to not disappoint on all levels.
Only you can send a man with stage 4 cancer to the backroads of Mississippi to fight for democracy. It’s crazy. It’s heartfelt. And it just might work.
The "Get rrr Done" Party of America is on the trail for thoughts, prayers, and votes.
I can't do this without like-minded Americans getting behind the plan. Your personal support today will make this mission possible. Please give generously if any of this plan resonates with you on any level. Remember... only you can send a guy with stage 4 cancer to beg votes from locals on the backroads of Mississippi. This unique opportunity will literally not last long. So, act now if you think it's so crazy that it's worth a shot.
Here's how you can help...
Donate to the Mission with a cash donation. My focus is on like-minded people. I am not looking to hard sell anyone or twist arms for donations. Just pick a number that you are comfortable with and please donate. Your generosity is hugely appreciated as I prefer to beg for votes over begging for money to beg for votes. Your generous support will send me to the backroads of Mississippi on behalf of all Americans... I think there is some serious humor wrapped around a real effort here.
Donate Air Miles I don’t know how to do it as I am not a frequent flier, but I believe it can be done. If you have a bunch of miles, you likely know how to transfer them. Cutting airline ticket costs would be great.
Share My Mission & Web Page I’m not sure how many people I have to reach to succeed in raising funding but it’s certain to be a lot. If you are like-minded in our state of the union, your sharing of my page will be effective getting the word out. Please share this website out to your contact list.
I am hopeful that this story will resonate with enough people to make this possible.
Your donation today will make a difference.

If you are interested in a detailed breakdown of my motivation, here is the crazy timeline of my last 12 months.
October 5-2024: Everything is fine. I’ve been a private hire “wingman” for gentlemen with dementia for almost 10 years. It’s a very rewarding role and my guys lived as joyfully and fully as possible. Providing extraordinary results made me well compensated and life was good.
November 5-2024: Trump wins election and like millions of others I am shocked. How could the American people elect this disaster for a second time? It is an incredible indictment of American greatness for sure.
Dec 25-2024: After reviewing all options, I decided to move to Europe and ride out Trump and GOP rule over there. I would easily find an expat in Europe who needed my skills with their father or husband and explore Europe well financed.
I gave notice for a May 1st departure to Barcelona. From there I would interview families and be interviewed by them until a match was found in Italy, France, or Spain. Under the circumstances, I was actually thrilled with the plan and was ready to roll. Everything was set and I was counting the days.
January 26-2025 Or, thereabouts, I suddenly began to lose my balance and the use of my hands.
Feb 2-2025 Scans showed a 3 vertebrae tumor inside my spine.
Feb 6-2025 I have spinal surgery to remove the tumor. The surgery was a success, but I was bedridden for 3 weeks in the hospital recovering. They tested the tumor and diagnosed me with stage four prostate cancer throughout my spine, pancreas, left hip bone and prostate. No cure. Start cancer drugs.
March 1-2025 I am released from hospital and can barely do anything at all. I haven’t worked since the 3rd week in January and won’t ever be able to work again. Which meant I could definitely not stay in San Diego without a paycheck. I had been living a good enough life to be able to relocate (on a budget) to Europe and that would have been incredible. Then… poof, no more paycheck, no more Europe, no more future, and I am now certain to go broke. It’s a big switch from living comfortably in Europe to going broke under Trump and dying from cancer before he gets out of office.
March-April-May-2025 Periodic waves of medical appointments mixed with weeks of waiting in between was the deal. I was waiting to get my care stabilized before transferring to Seattle’s Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. It’s the number 11 ranked prostate hospital in the country and I have friends in Oregon and Seattle. I will still go broke but now at a slower rate in the Pacific Northwest.
June-July I sell or give away everything I own except my truck, clothes, and sentimental things, leave San Diego for good and settle into my Oregon and Washington rotation. Get care at Fred Hutch established in this new reality.
August-September-October Everything is in place, and I begin to plan how to make my life mean something as I sit in my chair with a beautiful view. I can testify that just sitting around waiting to die is not really living. So, I’m going to Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas to solve that problem of mine.
