Help Danielle's battle against cancer & heart disease

Donation protected
For those of you who know me, I have been best friends with Danielle for 40 years. We have been through so much in life together. She has always been there through good and bad. I know for many of you, you can say the same about her. I am looking for assistance to help a dear friend and her family with the extreme cost of her medical situation. She and her wife have an amazing 8-year-old son, Marcus, and two crazy boxer puppies. I am hoping to ease some of their financial burdens brought on by extreme medical expenses.

Just over two and a half years ago, she was diagnosed and treated for ovarian cancer. Like most cancers, it was stubborn and would not back down. Danielle is a fighter! After a brief year or so of hope post-treatment, the cancer reappeared in her kidney, which ultimately had to be removed. Treatments resumed. She never complained or made excuses, just did whatever needed to be done to provide for her family.

The medical costs are unexpected and very costly. Treatment after treatment, along with the side effects of the treatments, took a toll on her. On Sunday, 1/26/25, Danielle suffered a heart attack while at home with her family and is currently admitted in a Springfield area hospital. The reason is TBD still. Best we know at the moment, her heart suffered damage while under treatment for the cancers.

She is a self-employed home improvement specialist adored by all her clients. However, as you can imagine, it has been difficult being able to earn in her condition. Please join me in a mission to help ease some of the financial struggles while Danielle and her family work on getting her back to health. I am hoping to raise $10,000, which is peanuts compared to the overall cost but will definitely be of assistance to the family. Thank you all for taking the time to read, and I pray for your support. Friends and family of Danielle and Marcy, please consider sharing this.
