Derrick Bailey Medical Fund

Donation protected
Please join me in raising critically needed funds to support one of my colleagues, Derrick Bailey, as he fights to provide medical care for his wife.  Derrick is an exempliary employee, who has struggled to make ends meet for his wife and 3 children.  He recently sent his wife and family home, where family members can keep an eye on Goldie and the kids in West Memphis, Arkansas while he remains in Dallas as the only bread winner.  Derrick's wife has been diagnosed with stage 3 bone cancer, and Lupus.  She is in desperate need of these funds to get treatment that is critical to her fight, and Derrick is much too proud of a person to ask for help.  Funding is needed by or before Friday, 7/15/2016.  Derrick has been living from paycheck to paycheck, working two jobs, and living from place to place in the DFW metroplex, not knowing where his next night will be spent.  Family and friends are unable to help to the degree that the family needs.  As his boss and mentor, I am reaching out via the only vehicle I know of left to explore.  Having gotten to know Derrick to the degree I have, he would give the shirt off of his back to anyone in need.  He has never once complained about his situation, and he is as fine an individual as I have ever met in my entire life.  Please, please look into your hearts, and help my colleague, his wife Goldie, and kids ages 4, 3, and 2.   I'm committed to Derrick's professional success, but know that my ability to continue to mentor him is greatly compromised by this immediate need.  I will be forever grateful to all who can help Derrick and Goldie.  Please Help!
