Ninja Warrior Battles Cancer & Medical Bills
 
Mary McDonald is one of those extremely capable, quiet people who sees what needs to be done and does it.  She is a true friend who is there to consistently lift others in their time of need. We call Mary our Ninja Warrior as she is always there and never gives up.


Mary had a very successful career as a national motivational and educational speaker/trainer, which came to an abrupt halt in 2010 when she was hit by a texting, minimally insured distracted driver.  

This accident resulted in a traumatic brain injury, leaving Mary with chronic pain, headaches, memory loss, and extreme dizziness. It ended her career and resulted in major ongoing medical bills which dramatically depleted her savings.

In February 2018, Mary’s life was again challenged when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Over the last 18 months, she has been aggressively treated with surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and targeted infusions.  

 The treatment protocol will be completed in January 2020, at which time Mary will focus on the utilization of integrative healing therapies to help rebuild her health.


If you have ever been hit by a medical crisis, you understand the astronomical and staggering expenses that are not covered by standard health insurance: significant copays, high deductibles and out of network doctors.


Keeping up with basic health and living expenses has become stressful and daunting, as the side effects of cancer are not only physical, but also mental, emotional and financial.

We have set up this Go Fund Me Campaign to help raise $40,000 to assist Mary with her existing and ongoing expenses. 






As her friends, we are asking on behalf of Mary, for anything you can contribute. 





We are most grateful for your kindness.
