In His Own Words...
"I have stage 4 prostate cancer and I am being treated with 28 treatments of radiation and also two different hormone treatments. I was asking for assistance because it is around 150 miles round trip to go to treatment and I go every day. I am disabled and only get a disability check and gas going to treatment every day gets expensive. Mercy Medical Angels kindly provided that assistance by sending me gas cards. They really do a lot of good for cancer patients like me."
