Hi everyone,

My name is Mikala, and I am a close friend of the McGranaghan family. I’m reaching out on behalf of Marty McGranaghan and his loved ones. On September 21, 2025, Marty’s wife, Shelly, rushed him to the hospital due to severe abdominal pain. He was admitted to Bergan Mercy and, after a series of tests and procedures, was diagnosed with DLBCL, a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Marty now faces a long and challenging road of treatment and recovery.

For those who know Marty, you know the kind of man he is — kindhearted, hardworking, and truly the life of the party. He’s a devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, a supportive brother, and a friend to so many. It’s heartbreaking to see Marty faced with this battle.

In the weeks and months ahead, Marty will undergo chemotherapy and additional procedures. While he hopes to continue working as his health allows, he will be unable to work full time. During this time, our goal is to help relieve some of the financial strain so that Marty and his family can focus on what matters most — his healing. Funds raised will go directly toward medical expenses, as well as everyday necessities like mortgage payments, utilities, and groceries.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference and will provide immediate relief for Marty and his family. If you’re not able to give financially, we ask that you please keep the McGranaghans in your thoughts and prayers, and share this page to help spread the word.

On behalf of Marty, Shelly, and their family, thank you for your generosity, encouragement, and love.

Mikala Wiley
