He is already beating the odds and I would love to be a part of helping him continue along the same path.
I just received an e-mail about raising money to help send him to Oklahoma for a 'new' treatment that has yet to be covered by medical insurance but seems to have good/positive effects on his type of tumor. They are trying to raise $10,000 for this treatment.
If you are a follower/reader of my blog, and feel at any way willing to donate, I will collect the money to send to them. I think pay pal may be an option? My paypal e-mail address is sdmorge@yahoo.com.
Here is the e-mail I received from Lesa regarding raising the funds.
Hi everyone,
If we've talked in the past 10 days, you know that we are trying to put together funds to send Floyd to Oklahoma for an alternative treatement that has shown a great deal of promise in defeating Glioblastoma. We have talked to several people that have been through the treatment and so far, they are cancer free. With each case, the physical effects of the disease have reversed to a degree and they are living relatively normal lives. As Floyd's condition continues to deteriorate, we know it is important to get him there as soon as possible. The cost for the treatment is $10,000 and so far, we have raised a part of that, but we don't have much time and we are asking everyone to help by asking as many people as you are comfortable asking to donate whatever they can, even $5 will put us that much closer. Unfortunately, because this is an alternative treatment in the United States, it is not covered by medical insurance. If each of us does what we can, we know that we can get him there and that this treatment will help him live. Thank you to each of you for your support, friendship and encouragement. Whatever the future holds, we appreciate and love you all.
Lesa, Elaine and Barbara
