Support David’s Journey to Healing
We never imagined cancer would turn our world upside down, but now we find ourselves in dire need of support! ✨✨
Our beloved David—husband, father, and longtime school custodian—has recently been diagnosed with a serious form of cancer.
As we begin this unexpected and overwhelming journey, we’re reaching out for help to ease the growing financial burden of his treatments and recovery.
David has spent years quietly making life brighter for children, greeting them with a warm smile and a helping hand. Just recently, one class surprised him with a bundle of handwritten “love letters” from the kids—each filled with drawings and notes of gratitude for the man who always made their school days a little cleaner and brighter. This moment was a reminder of the impact he’s had on so many lives.
Now, he needs our support!!
Despite having NON-supplemented Medicare, the financial strain of treatment, prescriptions, and recovery time away from work is overwhelming. And, we learned about this diagnosis unexpectedly just after completely exhausting our emergency savings earlier on urgent home repairs! Which is why we are now turning to you—our friends, family, and kind strangers—for your help and care!
We are seeking to raise **$30,000** to assist with:
- Treatment and surgery costs
- Prescriptions and healing support
- Follow-up care and recovery
- Basic living expenses while Laurence is unable to work
More than anything, we want Laurence to focus fully on healing—not on medical bills or financial stress. He has always been someone who lifts others up, and now, it’s our turn to lift him.
Any donation, big or small, helps ease the burden so he can focus on healing.
If you can’t donate, please share this campaign.
Your support means everything!!
With deep love and gratitude,
David’s family ❤️
