Derek Gorton Cancer Journey
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Daniel Gorton and I am fundraising for my brother Derek Gorton and his wife Madison. Derek came down with Covid 19 in March of 2020, a week before the country shut down. He developed long haul Covid for 3.5 years leaving him unable to work. Since then, Madison has been working and faithfully taking care of Derek full time. Just as he was beginning the road to recovery, on October 5th, 2023 he was diagnosed with cancer. I would like to ensure their medical bills (insurance doesn't cover) are covered. This will alleviate some stress and allow them to focus on Derek's health going forward. Would you please consider giving and sharing with your friends? If you want to reach out to the couple, please leave a comment on my (Daniel's) Facebook post and I will read it to them. Please respect Derek and Madison's privacy at this time.
