Bridgette Brosnan Bright has been my dear friend for 20 years, and I am reaching out on her behalf as she faces one of the toughest challenges of her life. As many of you know, Bridgette was diagnosed with Hurthle Cell Thyroid cancer, also known as oncocytic carcinoma. This is a rare and serious form of thyroid cancer, and she is currently receiving treatment at Ohio State Medical Center in Columbus, OH. Despite the difficulties, Bridgette has shown incredible strength and resilience, inspiring everyone around her with her courage and hope.

While Bridgette is following her medical team’s recommendations, she is also exploring alternative therapies to support her healing. Her functional medicine team has given her new hope and direction, and she is considering travel to California or even Saudi Arabia to access the best possible care. The costs of these therapies, along with travel and daily expenses, are significant and can quickly become overwhelming.

I am sharing Bridgette’s story because I truly believe in her and her journey toward better health. Any support—whether through a donation, sharing this page, or keeping her in your thoughts and prayers—means more than words can express. Thank you for being part of this journey toward healing and for helping Bridgette find the strength and resources she needs to keep fighting.
