<div>My name is Sharon Wright. I'm raising funds for my amazing friend and coworker, <strong>Shondra Blacknall</strong>. I'll let Shondra tell her story in her own words.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Hi everyone,


</div>


<div>On February 6, 2026, I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Since then, life has changed very quickly not only for me but also for my family and loved ones. So far, I've gone through two rounds of chemotherapy treatments with a third scheduled. I've had days that have tested me mentally, physically, and emotionally. Though the treatment has been hard, I'm continuing to believe in God's almighty power by fighting with faith, family, and friends.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My next major step will be a bone marrow transplant. During this process, I will need to temporarily relocate and stay close to the hospital for approximately three months after the transplant. I will also require a 24-hour caregiver during recovery, as my immune system will be extremely compromised, and I will need constant support and monitoring.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Because of the intensity of treatment and recovery, <strong>I am asking for help to ease some of the financial burden that comes with this journey.</strong> Donations will help cover:


</div>


<div>1. Temporary housing near the hospital (approximately $4,000/month for 3 months)


</div>


<div>2. Medical expenses not covered by insurance


</div>


<div>3. Transportation


</div>


<div>4. Caregiver support and daily living expenses


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Anyone who knows me knows this is not easy for me to ask, but right now, my family and I could truly use the additional support. If you are unable to donate, prayers, words of encouragement, and sharing this link are just as appreciated.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for supporting me during one of the hardest seasons of my life.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>With love, Shondra


</div>

<div>To know my dad, Kevin Reid, was to love him. He was indeed a special guy. He was funny, witty, a great father, and a loyal friend.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My dad had a giving heart and was full of life. He loved to laugh and make others laugh.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you know, he was one of the best athletes to play at West Charlotte High School and throughout all Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. He was co-captain of the 1986 State Championship Basketball team. After High School, he played basketball at Winston-Salem State University and Johnson C Smith University, where he made lifelong friends.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In 2000, my dad was involved in a severe car accident that paralyzed him. Although he faced many obstacles with his health and financial burdens, my dad was determined to live life. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We appreciate all of the phone calls, text messages, prayers, and love everyone has shown us.  
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As our family grieves his loss, many of you have asked what you can do to support our family.  Any financial assistance you can provide to help with the service arrangements and other financial needs is greatly appreciated. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please help celebrate his memory in any way that you will!
</div>

<div>Thank you, Brandon Reid

Our Daddy’s Home Going (William  Gay) AKA SARGE

<p>Meet Rojea McCook, fourth form (10th grade) student of Jamaica College, Kingston - aspiring Medical doctor, loving brother and son, and my nephew.   Rojea was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in early 2019 and underwent a 2-year battle that included multiple chemotherapy treatments, radiation, and surgery. Though grueling, our future doctor remained upbeat, determined to beat this disease, and eager to return to school. Our family was overjoyed when we finally received news that his scans came back clean. Rojea continued to pursue his studies in September 2020 and looked forward to realizing his dream.
</p>

<p>His scan to confirm remission was delayed for months due to covid, and when it was finally completed the family received the devastating news that this disease has returned and in a more aggressive way.  Rojea's doctors have advised that he will need immediate access to treatment and facilities that are not available in Jamaica in order to beat this difficult but treatable lymphoma.  His doctors referred his case to St. Jude's, but it was declined as his condition wasn't considered rare enough for them to treat.  There is some urgency as action needs to be taken to suppress the spread to get him ready for the bone marrow transplant.
</p>

<p>Please consider contributing to this fund as it will literally save the life of someone who is determined, and who wants to be an asset to his country.  The family wishes to thank those who have provided support and prayers. The battle is lengthy, and we hope you will join those who love him to open the door to a beautiful, meaningful future.
</p>

<strong>Holden Allen Wright<br /></strong><strong>A Celebration of Life<br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U</a></a><br /><br /></strong>Holden was only 28 years old when he tragically lost his life to drug addiction.  His Mother, Karen Couch (and my best friend) is heart broken.  Karen is currently on disability and struggling financially with her own medical bills and many hospitalizations for Holden during his battle with heroin.  Rather than hide the details of this tragic loss, the family hopes that their painful loss can help raise awareness of the horrific opioid crisis in our nation.  Parents, families, and friends please be aware of how easy it is for a child to become addicted. Stay alert, be aware, and be there to love and support them in their daily lives. The loss of a child is a pain so great that all Karen's extended family and friends are needed to offer pray up and lend support to Karen during this journey.<br /><br />I decided to start this GoFundMe page to help pay for expenses for a funeral/memorial to celebrate the life of her only son - Holden Wright. We want to ensure that Karen has a special place to commenorate his life and a place to visit to pay respect to his life as she grieves.<br /><br />Holden was often referred to as a gentle giant.  He was a kind and loving soul who lost his way.  He was a beloved son, grandson, father, cousin, friend, and a child of God.  He had a quick wit and was always happy to lend a hand to anyone who needed help or was in need.  He has been called home to heaven too soon and will be received by his late father, Curtis Wright.  Rest easy Holden, you will not suffer any longer.  <br /><br />Please take a moment to view the video in the link below to honor his life.  If you can make a donation to help Karen with Holden's  funeral/memorial expenses it will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you so much for your love and support.  <br /><br />Robin Keene<br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLSstD0qh9U</a><br /><br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/49255718_1593577816667460_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="49255718_1593577816667460_r.jpeg" /></a>
