Join Toby in his fight against Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Toby Armellino, 28 years young, has recently been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He travels 8 hours round trip for chemotherapy and appointments.

At the time of his diagnosis Toby was in graduate school in Minnesota after graduating from Shorter University. He had been working (and his fiancé, Shannon, does work) with kids in a program that builds teamwork and confidence, focusing on ecology, nature, and conservation. Emotionally rewarding work but not particularly financially rewarding beyond normal living expenses…and this young couple are faced with very abnormal expenses now.

They travel 8 hours round trip to a St. Luke’s hospital in Duluth, Minnesota for treatment. The Mayo Clinic is closer to their home, but his insurance will not pay for treatment there. St. Luke’s would normally house him in their Hope House, but Covid has shuttered that option. Toby is fortunate to have a loving partner and family; however, they very much need help with medical, living, and travel expenses during this difficult time.

We ask for your prayers for Toby. In addition, if you could make a donation to help Toby with his medical and travel expenses, it would be greatly appreciated.
