Dear Family and Friends,

I hope this message finds you well. It’s not easy for my friend Dennis or me to ask for help, but after much thought and encouragement from those close to him, I’ve decided to reach out and ask for help for him.

As some of you may know, he recently faced unexpected medical challenges that resulted in a hospital stay and ongoing treatment. While he is deeply grateful for the prayers he received and continues to receive, the financial burden has grown heavier than he can manage alone.

The total out-of-pocket costs have reached $5,000, and that amount has become a source of real stress during an already difficult time. He is doing everything he can to stay afloat, but right now, we need to lean on the people we can trust most — our friends and family.

If you’re in a position to contribute, even a small amount would make a big difference. Every dollar brings him one step closer to peace of mind and the ability to focus on healing. If you’re not able to give, I completely understand — your thoughts, prayers, and simply sharing this message are just as appreciated.

I’ve set up a donation page here:

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Writing it wasn’t easy, but knowing he is not alone gives him strength. No matter what, he is grateful for the love and support he has found in each of you.

With love and gratitude,

Joyce McCarthy
