My name is Jerry,
I hope this message finds you well. Today, I come to you with a plea—a plea for hope, compassion, and solidarity. Let me share a story—a story of love, resilience, and unwavering faith.
Exactly 39 years ago, I stood in a crowd and saw my wife, Betty, for the first time. She wore this beautiful red dress, and in that moment, I knew she was the one. Since then, we’ve weathered life’s storms together—the premature birth of our son, who the doctor did not believe would make it through the night. He’s now our pride and joy at 35 years old. My own battle with lung cancer, and countless other challenges. Betty has been my rock, my partner, and the life force of our family.
But life has thrown us another curveball. Betty has been diagnosed with Metastatic Salivary Gland cancer—a rare and formidable adversary. She’s fighting with all her might, undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and a promising new medication called Inlyta. This medication, though not FDA-approved for her specific cancer, has already shown significant improvement in her blood work. It’s the beacon of hope we cling to.
Yet, here’s the heartbreaking truth: Inlyta comes with a hefty price tag—$2,000 for a 1-month supply of 60 tablets. Our insurance won’t cover it due to lack of FDA approval. We’re standing at a crossroads, knowing that this medicine could be the key to putting Betty’s cancer at bay for only God knows, or for the rest of her life.
This is where you come in.
We’ve launched a campaign—a campaign to raise $24,000. This amount will sustain Betty with an annual supply of Inlyta. Will that be enough? God knows, I don’t know. But every dollar counts, every prayer matters. Here’s how you can join us:
1. Donate: Visit our GoFundMe page (link) and contribute what you can. No amount is too small. Your generosity will directly impact Betty’s fight.
2. Spread the Word: Share this message with your network. Tell your friends, family, and colleagues about Betty’s journey. Sometimes, a ripple of kindness turns into a wave of support.
3. Pray and Encourage: Whether you believe in a higher power or simply in the power of positive thoughts, we welcome your prayers and words of encouragement. They sustain us.
Betty’s smile lights up a room, and her faith often outshines mine. Let’s rally around her, just as she’s stood by me and our son. Let’s be the wind beneath her wings, lifting her toward health and wellness.
