Shannon Darryl the fight continue

Donation protected
Darryl and Shannon Roche moved in to the house beside me for the last three years.  Since they've lived beside me they have been courteous, helpful and friendly neighbors.   Whenever you walk by make sure to say hello with a smile.   They've been married for 6 years now and moved to Ontario around 4 years ago once they heard Shannons son was having a baby.  They wanted to be closer to watch him grow up. 
Shannon works at The Village Nursing Home in Hanover taking care of others for a living and Darryl hasn't worked in security since he was laid off last year from his security job because of Covid. 
In February, Shannon was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer.  She just completed her third round of chemo.  Her fourth round will be on April 30th.  After that, she will begin radiation five days a week.  They are unsure of how long that will go on for. 
If that wasn't enough for this couple to go through,  last week Darryl had a biopsy in Owen Sound and has just found out he has Cancer in his neck and throat.  He will now need to make trips to London as well for surgery, radiation and chemo. 
With both of them not working they are just scraping by....all of this in the middle of a lockdown for a pandemic.  Not only do they have the stress of being sick but have to worry about being able to pay for gas just to get back and forth for treatment.  This isn't even considering food or possible hotel stays if they don't have the energy to drive five days a week. 
If you can help this couple in any way at all, I know they will appreciate it so much.    Please reach out to them and let them know you are thinking of them and donate if you can.



UPDATE: As of October 2021
  Unfortunately, Shannon and I are still fighting this horrible disease. After 2 and a half months of being diagnosed
Clear, Shannon is starting Chemo again tomorrow for her second bout,  as it has spread to 5 areas in her body. I am just waiting for the surgeon to call me as my cancer is still in my neck on both sides and have to have it surgically removed. It has been very rough. Prayers and blessings from our friends and family is definitely needed.
Love you all and God Bless
