Stories from Grateful Patients: Genevieve

September 26, 2025

In Her Own Words...

"My name's Genevieve, and I live in Indiana. In November 2024, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I have a family history so I wasn't completely taken by surprise. Nonetheless, it's still difficult."


"My best option for beating cancer is at MD Anderson in Houston, Texas. But I didn't know how I would get there."


"Mercy Medical Angels' volunteer pilots made it possible for me to fly round-trip for my treatments, scans, and check-ups. I'm so thankful for all the help I've received from pilots and staff during my breast cancer battle. What an amazing organization!"
