Hi, My name is Alicia; I'm writing this with the hope we can find a way to give

our father a longer life.

Our father, Richard, has lived a long life indeed. For as long as I can remember, he's been a wise and understanding presence in our lives with a sense of humor. As we grew older, we treasure our time with our father. But unfortunately, our family has faced some of the most trying times in recent years.

In the fall of 2019 our father was diagnosed with lymphoma. Although he managed to fight through to remission, by May of 2019, we lost our beloved Step-Mother, Nikki, to fast-moving cancer. After the loss of Nikki, dad decided it was time to relocate from New Hampshire to Arizona to be close to my younger brother and I. Within a year of his relocating, he was suffering the effects of his previous radiation treatment and had to have extensive medical treatment resulting in unforseen costs that led an already financially strained man to the point of a struggle that he never wished his children experience.

Recently our dad was rediagnosed with lymphoma. Thankfully, the doctors' diagnosis came back with only 15 radiation treatments rather than chemotherapy. We were relieved to receive this news. However, recently, we've been notified that his health insurance will not cover all of the treatment expenses. Unfortunately, we do not have the funds to make this happen.

From the bottom of my heart, I'm asking for any donation that you can give to assist us with the expense of our father Richard's radiation treatments to help him on his path to remission.

We appreciate any funds you can give; much love and respect.
