Support the McQuade Family

It has been about a year since Denise McQuade became sick with vomiting and terrible abdominal pain. After being misdiagnosed by a GI doctor in Connecticut, the doctors at Northern Westchester Hospital discovered a large lymphoma mass in her small intestine. This type of lymphoma, called Post Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disease (PTLD), is a rare complication from a kidney transplant Denise received 15 years ago, a gift from her husband Rob.

After numerous trips to the Mount Sinai emergency room and several hospital stays, Denise’s road to recovery began with chemotherapy. Soon after the fourth round, Denise suffered a setback – a perforation in her small intestine. After 3 surgeries, Denise was put in a medically induced coma and on a ventilator. For those of you who know Denise well, she is a true warrior, determined and ready to fight this battle!

Along with this battle comes increasing financial challenges for her family. If you would like to assist Denise, Rob and their 3 children – Jake, Ryan and Maeve – with their upcoming financial burden, any donation would be appreciated, and no donation is too small.

Thank you for all your prayers and continued support. Please continue to pray for Denise, Rob and her entire family.
