Support, LOVE & HOPE for the Totaro Family
Donation protected
Hi, My name is Sammie and I’m reaching out to share the story of a dear friend (to be honest more than a friend, she is like my little sister) who I’ve known for over 12 years Despina. Her husband Sam has recently been diagnosed with Stage 3A Advanced Lymphocyte Rich Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He is currently undergoing an intense chemotherapy regimen called EBEACOPP, which will last for 4 to 6 months, depending on his response to treatment.
As the main provider for their family, Sam is unable to work, coupled with the challenges of everyday life, things can feel overwhelming (and sometimes people may not ask for help, but they need it). I want to do everything I can to support them during this incredibly tough time.
For those that know or may not know my friends Sam and Desi, they have 3 cute, wonderful boys, Ashton, Oskar & Leo. Both Sam and Desi do everything for their family, and it breaks my heart knowing that they have to go through this.
Your generosity can make a real difference. Any contribution, no matter how small, will help alleviate some of the financial stress they’re facing and allow them to focus on what truly matters, healing and being together as a family.
I personally know how important it is to get behind each other during these times, the smallest amount can help in more ways than you could ever know.
Thank you all SO MUCH and all my love to you Sam, Despina, Ashton, Oskar & Leo
