My Nonprofit Reviews

I was 33 years old when I was diagnosed with StageIV metastatic Oral Cancer. The treatments and surgeries that saved my life however left me disfigured, disabled, and dependent on the opiate pain medication Fentanyl. I felt lost and alone, without hope. I found the Oral Cancer Foundation's Online support forums 11 months after diagnosis and it was a ray of light for me. I was able to connect with survivors and other patients who understood my struggle and relate to where I was at. With their advice and support I've been able to rebuild my body and free myself from the opiates, and begin to live again. I can't express the gratitude in my heart for the Oral Cancer Foundation or the Angels of mercy who are the staff and volunteers that spend their time helping those in need.
