Stevo and family needs help....PLEASE!

[kmtpr]

Me too, kmtpr.  I think this coming November is 24 years since my cancer diagnosis.  Way too many of us out there, but it sure beats the alternative.  Medicine is making great strides with many of the cancers which is great to see.

 

Congratulations to you and Hope you remain cancer free. Just to clarify, wasn't me; cancer took my husband back then.

John,

Thank you for all you are doing.

Though I have never met Stevo he reminds me of a very dear friend under similar circumstances.

Unfortunately, residual effects from being in Nam. And its extremely sad how our politicians treat these hero's.

Pass on my best when you see him next, and an envelope went out in todays mail to his wife.

Sorry for your loss.  I'll never forget the look on my then girlfriend's face when we learned I had cancer.  Two years later we got married and twenty one years later she probably wonders why she stuck around so long.

Even The Salvation Army can give you some directions.

As a Township Veterans Committee Member--Salvation Army Monmouth County Disaster Volunteer. We have helped many that wanted help but there remains those who Refuse help for whatever Reasons.

 It is not easy to convince a Proud Veteran to ask for help be it Welfare- Food Stamps. Financial Assitance.  especially if they had Bad experiences.

Hope this helps Stevo and His Wife. Bill 

Thank you Bill!

I hate hearing this and feel so bad for his family and wife. Id say I feel that way for Stevo too but, I have a feeling he wants NOONE feeling sorry for him. Im in such a tight spot right now. I'm trying to sell some fishing equipment just to get by. Not crying a river , just being upfront because I know every little bit helps! If they sell and Im able, I will definitely help out with what I can!

I used the gofundme link on the other thread. Not as much as I would like to donate, guys, but every little bit helps....done!

Am Sorry he is going through more pain etc. Cancer is Hell!! I feel very bad for him and his wife. I was in a similar situation 23 years ago. Hope they will get the much needed help. God bless!

 

I couldn't agree more, one of the worst days of my life was when my wife was diagnosed.  It sucks.
