Help needed in a difficult time...

“When we speak of life, so often love is intertwined in the story. Danny's story is one of life and love. And, in the pain of the moment, dying is also part of it. Danny was diagnosed in August with a very aggressive cancer. A cancer that has taken hold of his bones, his brain, his lungs and his lymph nodes. It will win. The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of trips to Oncologists, brain surgery, tests and multiple attempts to help him in his pain. But, as the tears flow, he continues to love his Rhonda and worry about her. Even with facing death, his only concern is the fear of the debt, over a million dollars, that he will leave behind with all the medical bills, the traveling, staying out of town and the incurred day-to-day expenses. Rhonda is out of days off and Danny has been unable to work. They say in dying things become clear. For Danny, it is the life that he wants to leave to his love. It is knowing that, even though his journey is coming to an end, that he was able to grace hers with a moment in life that was filled with love and security. I know that things are tight for all, but please consider financially helping them out, so that he can live what time he has left without worry knowing that the bills are paid.”

“I am here with you and I love you. You are dying and that is completely natural; it happens to everyone. I wish you could stay here with me …..You are not alone, now or ever. You have all my love.”
