My name is Leslie, and I have been best friends with Michelle for over 30 years. I am reaching out to ask for support for my dear friends, Dennis and Michelle, during one of the hardest times in their lives.

Dennis has battled diabetes for many years. For over a decade, he has been on dialysis, holding on to the hope of one day receiving a kidney transplant. Unfortunately, repeated health complications prevented that dream from becoming a reality.

Last week, Dennis faced his biggest challenge yet: a life-altering surgery that resulted in the loss of the lower part of his left leg.

Dennis and Michelle have already weathered many storms together, but this new reality brings both emotional and financial challenges. To help Dennis return home safely, they will need:

A wheelchair-accessible ramp for their home

A scooter for mobility

Medical equipment to support his recovery and daily living

Assistance with overdue bills, food, and hospital-related expenses such as parking,

Every donation—no matter the size—will directly support Dennis and Michelle as they adapt to this new chapter. Your generosity will provide Dennis with the tools and equipment he needs for independence and safety. It will also relieve some of the financial stress so Michelle can focus on caring for Dennis.

Your kindness will truly make a difference in helping Dennis come home safely and begin the path toward healing and adjustment.

With gratitude,

Leslie
