Joliet, IL
survivor of Hodgkin's lymphoma
“After beating cancer, my outlook on life changed for the better. I became a different person and quickly realized what was really important.
Despite my happiness, I had a huge burden on my shoulders – it was money. It got to the point where I was scared to go to the doctor because my bills were way past due. I hate to let money bother me so much, but I didn’t know what to do.
The day I got the call from The SAMFund was the second best day of my life (the day I went into remission was the best day). I knew right then and there that everything was going to be alright. It wasn’t just the money, and bills being paid, that made me happy. To be honest, just the fact that there are people out there that care that much was what touched me the most. ”
