Dear Family and Friends,

It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that our father, Bill, has been diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma Stomach Cancer. This has been a difficult time for all of us, but we are determined to support Bill in every way possible as he begins his fight against this disease. Bill received his diagnosis in early May. Since then, he has been meeting with doctors in Boston, New York, and the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota to develop a treatment plan for his fight against this disease. Next week, he will begin intensive chemotherapy.

Bill has spent most of his adult life working as a carpenter, doing physical labor on his job sites every day. Unfortunately, this type of work is not possible for him at this time, and to make matters worse, the Mayo Clinic did not accept his health insurance.

We are asking for your help and support during this challenging time. Our goal is to ensure that Bill can focus on his recovery without the added worry of financial stress. Any donation you can make, no matter how small, will go a long way in supporting Bill's treatment and recovery.

Thank you for your love, support, and generosity.

Sincerely,

Kate, Samantha, Lizzy, and Colin Freed
