Irene and Rick Marcuson celebrated 52 years of marriage!
~April 23rd, 2018~
Irene diagnosed with colon cancer
~July 5th, 2018~
Rick diagnosed with prostate cancer
Clearly they've chosen to do everything together!
Most of you know last year Rick and Irene left their conventional life style, sold their home and most of their belongings and spent life traveling the US in a motorhome. In December they landed in Bishop, CA to help my brother build his new home in the mountains.
In April that abruptly halted when Irene was diagnosed with cancer. Their amazing friends, the Diamonds, have been so gracious to host the motorhome on their property, allowing Irene to be close to her church family and community as she undergoes Chemotherapy and Radiation in Westlake. Irene is due to have surgery for tumor removal in early September.
To complicate matters, Rick was diagnosed with prostate cancer in July. He has begun treatment and is waiting to have surgery following Irene’s recovery from surgery. While they have been fortunate to have insurance that covers much of their medical expenses, the true cost of the medical and living expenses related these illnesses is a far greater burden. My brother and I, of course, are providing all the support we can.
My parents have shared their beautiful marriage with their community in Simi Valley. They are the most generous, kind and supportive people anyone who ever met them would attest.
At this time, they need your support.
The bills will continue to accumulate as they both fight their battles of cancer together. If you have the ability to donate any amount of money to their fund, every bit will help make a difference.
Please keep them both in your prayers. Rick and Irene have touched so many people in their lives, PLEASE forward this request for support along to other friends you know that they’ve impacted along the way. I know the list is long!
Thank you, in advance, for your support, prayers and love for my parents, Rick and Irene Marcuson.
Love,
