<div>Jackie Ridenour has been battling cancer for over three years. She was initially diagnosed with colorectal cancer in May of 2020. At that time, she received radiation, chemo, and a colostomy. The treatments cleared her rectal cancer and Jackie was able to have the colostomy reversed; unfortunately, further tests and scans showed that the cancer had metastasized to her lungs and liver. Jackie began another chemo regimen which ended up being lamentably ineffective. On August 9th, 2023, the Ridenours received extremely distressing news that Jackie’s spots on her liver had doubled in size and the cells in her lungs had mutated. She has recently begun immunotherapy, her fifth medication in three years. We are all praying that this current treatment diminishes the cancer. At this time, Jackie and Randy are in need of love, prayers, and support. If you are able to assist financially, they sure could use our help with medical and living expenses. Thank you, and God bless.

In Loving Memory of Rockn Mom

Amber had a beautiful soul. She was a great wife, a great friend and most of all a great mother. she loved her kids and would do anything to make sure they were okay.. if the kids could have the option to stop by the cemetery when they're older to see their mom that would make her happy ❤ my only wish right now is to get her proper burial. She passed away last night and im expected to pay about $17,000 in funeral services and lot for burial.. anything helps I really appreciate everyone thank you

My beautiful sister Christina Fineo, has had a long battle with Celiacs Disease, IC, Severe Endometriosis and Oviarian Cysts, Dairy and Meat intolerances as well. Her body, everyday, refuses to absorb the very little nutrients that are available to her.  She lives in constant pain and discomfort but always seems to give to others and keep her spirits high. She is a Vigilant Christian and Fierce Friend to so many. In her bid to move closer to family and friends who could be a support system for her,  she and her family left Nashville to move to Florida and are now without Health Insurance.  Today she was taken in an ambulance in Shock because her body is just too weak and is slowly starving her of all nurtients.  With CAT scans MRIs, Brain Scans, blood tests, Emergency Room Visit, and a nights over in the hospital, her medical bills are skyrocketing . I'm asking for all those who love her, show her some support and ease some of thier financial pain by donating directly to her and her medical expenses.

Christina's Medical Expenses

Please help with the sudden and unfortunate passing of my father. He was murdered 8/24. Just need some help with cremation and gas money to sprinkle his ashes. A simple cremation service is likely to cost between $1,500 and $3,000, so this can present a significant saving to families struggling with the full cost of funeral services.  Gas to go from Texas to fort Lauderdale will cost about 250$ Gas to go to Connecticut will be about 300$  And gas to get back to Texas will be another 300$ We also need to get his son Joshua Pierce from Colorado to Texas which will cost about 100$ then we can drop him off on the way back from Connecticut.  These are his wishes and anything helps...

WOW, how do I start. Heres my story and what lies ahead of me. I came home from a long work week of travel and it was my first night in my bed, and my female doberman missed me so she decided to sleep at the foot of my bed. That morning she hit my right breast with her paw as i was playing with her in the morning and i felt a strong pop. With in a few months I developed a red rash, in which made me go in for a check up.  I found out on Nov 1st after a biopsey came back postive for Inflammatory Best Cancer ( IBC), it grows fast its unlike other types of breast cancer.  1-4% of woman with breast cancer have this type, it is the rarest, most aggressive and dangerous form of breast cancer. The absence of a lump or mass makes it hard to detect by a mammogram and therefore can spread undetected. I have been getting mamograms every year along with a yearly check up. IBC enters the skin and lymph vessels of the breast. It is important to seek treatment for IBC at a clinic that specializes in IBC. Well, MD ANDERSON in HOUSTON TX is the one place that does this. I am not working in the field anymore, however I still work from home as most of you know how passionate i am about my job/industry. Moreover, what I make does not cover out of state care in Houston, so I need to raise funds to get myself there for surgery, follow up care, radiation therapy, and conitued chemo for a year and finally removal of my second/healthy breast.  All of this depending on how much I raise! I have completed 7 rounds of chemo and I have two more to go.  I will have one breast removed first then the other 6 months after radiation is completed. After surgery I will remain in Houston for 2 weeks. After the 2 week period I fly home and do physical therapy for 2-3 weeks before flying back to Houston for radiation therapy. Its also very differnt as I will need radition therpy 2X a day for 4 1/2 weeks - 44 treatments along with getting back to chemo. 6 months after radiation I go back for the second breast removal. I want to express that I am struggling with being away from my boys so MD ANDERSON has been working with my FL Oncologist but I am definitely having the surgery and follow up care in Houston. The WAR ends for me when the docs say I am free and clear of my tumor markers. For those that want to know, breast cancer is broken up into three categories those patients that are HER2 positive (named after a receptor found on the cancer cell), estrogen/progestosterone positive (again receptors that are found on the cancer cell), triple negative (cancer cell that is void of receptors). The advancement of cancer therapy has been in the development new chemo agents targeting HER2 receptors. 15 years agao IBC had a 100% mortality rate, today if your HER2 positive and responding well to chemo and the cancer has not spread then those statics have improved to 50% that an IBC patient makes it to the 5 year mark and 30% to make it to the 10 year mark (I plan on being one of the IBC survivors!). If you would like to learn more <a href="https://www.mdanderson.org/cancer-types/breast-cancer/breast-cancer-facts.html" target="_blank"><a href="https://www.mdanderson.org/cancer-types/breast-cancer/breast-cancer-facts.html" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.mdanderson.org/cancer-types/breast-cancer/breast-cancer-facts.html</a></a> I have so many other details that I hope to share and hopefully I will get to do just that with all my friends. Lastly, I am staying positive/strong but understand this is not easy for me, simply asking for help, trust me to the core would rather be giving than asking for help. MUCH LOVE DIANA

Diana Pratt vs. Breast Cancer (IBC)

A couple of years ago our good friend Gus Rios was diagnosed with tinnitus, and then incredibly early, and aggressive/genetic cataracts. Gus lost 90% vision in one of his eyes, but the corrective surgery didn't last and his left eye is now worse at about 10% visibility. As we all know, health insurance as an independent musician is impossible... so let's help a brother out, as this next surgery will be very expensive. Gus has played with bands like Upon Infliction, Resurrection, Malevolent Creation and Gruesome. He has engineered for many others and has also been a tech for bands like Filter, Cynic, and Meshuggah. Gus has never asked us for anything, but will always be the first to ask what he can do to help you or someone else. If you have any extra to help a fellow drummer/musician/engineer to continue to do what he does for all of us, any donation is more than appreciated. Even sharing the post will help, if you are not able to contribute. Gus is already listing his drums and other personal items up for sale to pay for this surgery and we'd like to see him keep his stuff!  Thank you for reading... Ian, Anton, Jeff, Lili, Tomasz and everyone else at Sick Drummer Magazine.

Gus Rios' Eye Surgery

Hi, I'm Julie, and I'm posting this for our friend, Shawnah Murphy.   Shawnah is a light in all of our lives.  She does for others as much as possible.  She knows no strangers, and has nothing but love in her heart.  She is a second Mom to my son, and as I look through her pictures; they attest to her being near and dear in the hearts of many.  She thrives on peace and spirituality, and those of us that know her well, are blessed with her fun loving spirit and powerful embrace of the positive. Her family is having a difficult time right now.  Her Dad is ill.  His heart is weak, and his prognosis is not good.  Mom is employed at a place where people are given just enough hours to fall short of being eligible for health insurance.  Shawnah's mom is being asked for a $10,000 copay by the hospital.  Shawnah's dad just retired, and used his entire 401K to purchase a home to retire near their grandchildren, just before he fell ill.   Shawnah is with them now, but this is her second costly trip, and she is struggling to help them.   They could really use our help.  Shawnah is always there for everyone, so I'm hoping we can return the favor.  Any little bit helps, and is greatly appreciated.

Help for Shawnah's Family

Our dear friends, Anthony (Tony) and Jennifer Fellows, and family suffered a devastating loss due to a house fire on February 20, 2016. Thankfully and luckily, no one was injured. This is a family of eight, in total, that includes two teenage sons, a feisty 6-year old son, two recently adopted infants that have been in the family since their births, and Jennifer’s elderly Mom, Cynthia, AKA “Pretty.” They are holding strong, being supportive of each other, and have a place to stay for now. They will be rebuilding when the proverbial “dust” has settled. Tony, a gifted musician and vocalist, has generously donated his time and talent for 30+ years in South Florida when friends/family have needed a helping hand. NOW is our time to come together and pay-it-forward to Tony, Jennifer and their family! Please open your wallets and your hearts to help minimize the trauma and loss for this family, especially the children. Big Dawgs 2, 7357 Davie Road Ext, Hollywood, FL 33024 and Tel: [phone redacted] is generously hosting a “Help Our Brother Out” event on March 19, 2016. Music will be donated by some of South Florida’s premier bands and musicians. Due to its long hours of operation, DeeDee Procaccini has offered use of their VIP Room for drop-off donations. Some suggested donations include Visa or MasterCard gift cards, and gift cards for Target, Publix, Bed, Bath &amp; Beyond, and the like as they are very limited on storage space at this time. Save the date NOW to show your love and support. Also, please keep them in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you very much and may many blessings be yours. Let's do this...

" Help our brother out"

Our dear friend, Aldo, needs our help in order to seek treatment. As you know, he is a talented musician who performs mainly in bars and similar venues. It is recommended that Aldo attend in-patient treatment. Understandably, this is such a hard decision. Aldo will not go unless he can cover his monthly expenses while he seeks the help he so desperately needs and he would never ask for help...so, I will do it for him without him ever having to ask because he is one of the best people I will ever know and I don't want to lose him. He is too humble to ever ask for help amd too sweet and generous to ever want to put his friends in this position. So, only donate if you truly WANT to and is it not a burden on you. Please consider contributing to this fund to help our friend in his recovery, if you can.  All of the funds will be given to his fiancé, Hannah, to use to cover expenses while Aldo is in treatment. Every dollar helps. Will you help save a friend's life today? Thank you. This means the world to us all.

Our very sweet friend, incredible musician and supporter of many efforts needs our help. David Shelley was diagnosed (for the second time in 12 months) with Cancer. It has spread slightly from the original site, and now he needs to face the battle; treatment for 6 months and an ongoing lifestyle change to keep the cancer at bay and him here with us for many more years of great music and friendship from the man who's soul truly shines. David started his career in the late 80's , he had many memorable appearances and have created an array of great tunes, and most recently 2 albums with his band Bluestone. In 2014 he finally had the opportunity to sign with a record label, and change his continued struggle as a musician to a more financial stable future. He received his Cancer diagnosis ONE HOUR after receiving the record label offer, after being in the business for almost 30 years. Timing is everything, and timing was not on David's side. David had surgery, removed the cancer and went on a strict regime. The record deal never happened, as the word spread that David was sick. It was devastating to him and to the band who thought their break was finally happening. We worked hard after David's recovery to get David Shelley and Bluestone as much exposure as possible in the US, Canada and Europe. 2015 was a promising year, with many festivals lined up, including an Europe debut in May. Now a year after the initial diagnosis the cancer is back, and David has no choice but to battle it out with the right treatment.  All we worked for will be cancelled, hopefully postponed, until David makes a strong return. Timing again is not on David's side.  All the donations will be used for David's medical expenses, to keep his insurance active, basic life expenses covered as he will not be working for at least 6 months. For questions and private donations please contact us.  We hope that the love that the fans have around the world will encourage them to donate towards this cause. This very important assistance will ensure that David has the essential needed to battle this awful disease and make a strong come back. Thank you all so much for your support, God bless and may David's soul shine though these dark times.
