Review for For Pete's Sake Cancer Respite Foundation, Plymouth Meeting, PA, USA
I honestly don't know where to start. My husband was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and not given much hope. We've never heard of FPS but our Dr and a friend had and recommended us for their program. Knowing what we were facing with treatments, upcoming surgery etc - they offered us an amazing opportunity to enjoy time together, to make crazy memories and spend quality time together as a family. Our trip to Florida started with tickets to Disney (my daughter was all about Elsa), Front of the line access to Universal Studios (Transformers and Superheros for the boy) and SeaWorld . .... Rich was still pretty healthy at this point - it gave him the boost he needed to fight for almost 2 more years and it gave me and the kids beautiful memories and photos to look back on now that he's gone. Not only did FPS do all that, but we had luncheons and met other people fighting similar battles, got to celebrate small victories with them. After he passed they continue to comfort me and connect me with people who I can relate to. They offer a connection to a life not everyone can understand. I appreciate them more than I can ever say and will forever be grateful.
Review for For Pete's Sake Cancer Respite Foundation, Plymouth Meeting, PA, USA
I learned about FPS shortly after my husband was diagnosed with Dtage 4 Pancreatic Cancer and they sent us on a wild memory making adventure with our kids to Florida, Disney, sea world and universal. At the time we had no idea what this Cancer would do to us, as a couple and as a family. But it can't take away everything we had in that week.
