Review for Angels of Hope - A Family Cancer Foundation, Shelby Township, MI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

There could not be a better name for Angels of Hope. True Angels that do give you hope when all hope seems lost. My daughter Olivia was diagnosed in May 2012 at the age of 18 of Hodgkins Lymphoma stage II just a few weeks shy from graduating High school, after grueling chemo treatments, she was in remission January 2012, I was able to go back to work. The evil demon known as "Cancer"found its way back into our lives once again, and after countless test, and biopsies, we were given the dreaded news on September 24th 2014 that Olivia now 20 relapsed and is stage IV, and would need a bone marrow transplant. I was knocked to my knees. I had to quit my job to care for her as she is now undergoing very aggressive chemotherapy, and admitted 6 days each treatment. Already struggling financially, as a divorced mother of four words cannot describe my despair. I received a call from Steve York (My personal Angel), and found out that a friend had called him on our behalf. We were accepted by Angels of Hope and they have taken care of my rent, and utilities, as if that wasn't enough, while in the hospital I received a call saying we are one of many families chosen for the Christmas program!!! I will forever be grateful for Angels of Hope, and Steve York, for rescuing my family, taking such a HUGE burden off of me, so that I can focus on Olivia and my other three children. I have many moments where I just break down, but many of the tears are tears of joy, because of such great acts of kindness that goes above and beyond! Thank you Angels of Hope, much much love from the Hawley family.
