In Her Own Words...
"I have breast cancer and I am low income. I have to travel multiple times to get specialized cancer treatment, over 600 miles per month. Being diagnosed with breast cancer and not being able to access the care I need increases my financial and emotional distress."
"Mercy Medical Angels has provided a relief for me. They gave me financial assistance for gas. This made it possible for me to get to my cancer treatment on time."
"Their help has improved my physical and mental wellness, and also enabled me to maintain some financial stability.My quality of life is getting better, thanks to Mercy Medical Angels. They are really, truly great!"
