Mel’s campaign for Oscar for American Cancer Soc.

Tax deductible

I have never done a GoFundMe before but
there  are many firsts in this request.  

I am running my first half marathon next
weekend and my dad had his first immunotherapy treatment this week.

My dad (Oscar) had a melanoma reoccurrence after 12 years! Despite surgery, his cancer has spread to his lymph nodes . He is no spring chicken so we know this will be very hard but he wants to fight it! He is getting
treatment at Goshen Hospital in Goshen, IN.

I want to raise $100 for every mile I run next weekend in his honor to donate to the American Cancer Society. No amount is too small. Please consider giving to this  little attempt
to try to fight cancer. A lot of little raindrops can make a big puddle!!!

More information about American Cancer Society: At the American Cancer Society, we're on a mission to free the world from cancer. Until we do, we'll be funding and conducting research, sharing expert information, supporting patients with transportation to treatment, lodging and spreading the word about prevention. All so you can live longer and better.

Thank you & Bless you,
Melonee
