Help Gloria Mindock Care for Bill
Donation protected
I have a started a fundraiser for Gloria Mindock-- the founder of the Cervena Barva Press-and a well-respected member of the Boston area poetry scene. She has helped countless others and now needs our help. Bill, her partner of may years, and the designer for the press is very ill....Please read below....
In this country, one has to fund-raise for life-saving medical treatment.
Wiilliam (Bill) Kelle, has laryngeal and tracheal cancer. He had a laryngectomy, a 9-hour surgery to remove his vocal cords and voice box. He will soon have treatment for the tracheal cancer and will be following up with radiation and chemo.
Although Bill has medical insurance, it only covers a small fraction of doctors’ appointments, surgery, hospital stays, medication, chemo, radiation and supplies for his stoma care. (A stoma is permanent opening in the neck which allows Bill to breathe.)
Bill’s partner, Gloria Mindock will be taking care of him at home. As you know, this places a financial burden on both Bill and Gloria, therefore this fund-raiser is being established.
Please consider making a donation, if you can’t, your thoughts, prayers, and well wishes are powerful and always appreciated.
