Help Leroy Washington Battle Stage IV Cancer

Help Leroy Washington in His Battle Against Cancer

Dear friends and family,

In September 2024, our beloved brother, Leroy Washington, was given a life-changing diagnosis—Stage IV Gastrointestinal Cancer—after the results of a biopsy came back. This devastating news came just two weeks after his 68th birthday on September 15th.

Leroy, the eldest of five siblings, has always been a pillar of strength and a man of kindness. His life, once filled with independence in South Carolina, has now been altered as he now relies on his family, for support.

Leroy is aware of the full extent of his diagnosis and the love and care surrounding him, and the unwavering faith that has guided us through this journey. For weeks, we struggled to convince him to share his news, but the time came when he could no longer carry this burden alone. The weight of his illness has been overwhelming for our family, yet we find peace and strength in knowing that God is walking with us through this trial.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” — Jeremiah 29:11

Leroy has been undergoing chemotherapy every two weeks. The road ahead is long, filled with ongoing treatments, surgeries, and recovery, and the financial burden is becoming too much for us to bear alone. His medical insurance is unable to cover much of his treatment, and the mounting medical and travel expenses are overwhelming.

We, his family, are doing everything we can, but we need your help. We humbly ask for your support—whether through a donation, a share, or simply keeping Leroy in your prayers. Every act of kindness means the world to us and gives us strength.

100% of the proceeds will go directly toward covering Leroy’s out-of-pocket medical expenses and the ongoing treatments he will need in the coming months and years. Any amount you can offer is a true blessing, and we are deeply grateful for your generosity.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with Leroy during this fight. We believe in his strength, and with your help, we know he can overcome this challenge.

With love and gratitude,
Mary
