Hi everyone, my name is Tara Lakesh, and I'm reaching out to you for my dear friend Patrick Bermel. He’s been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer, and he needs our help.
Patrick is one of the kindest, most generous people I know. He’s always there for others, offering a helping hand and a warm smile. But now, he’s facing a tough battle with prostate cancer, and his world has been turned upside down.
Sadly, many of his health treatment costs aren't covered by BC health care, and those costs are overwhelming. To make matters worse, due to the recent film strike, Patrick and his partner weren’t able to work for 8 months, which have put them behind financially. So they’re struggling to cover medical bills and basic living expenses.
We’re reaching out to friends, family, and anyone who’s been touched by Patrick's kindness. Any donation, no matter the size, will go directly towards his treatment costs.
Thank you for taking the time to read about Patrick. Your support, whether through a donation or by sharing this page, means everything to us. Together, we can help him fight this battle. Please keep Patrick in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Feel free to add any specific stories or details that highlight his character even more!
