Review for PAN Foundation, Washington, DC, USA
I learned I have STAGE3 PROSTATE CANCER around the time we learned we were going to be Grandparents for the FIRST and ONLY GRANDCHILD. For a few days I was so excited to know that I would be a Grandfather then I realized I would never live to see our one and only Grandchild grow up graduate from any school. But then I realized I had to thank GOD I that I lived long enough to see my ONE and ONLY GRANDCHILD be born. For a while my Stage 3 Prostate Cancer seemed to respond to the treatment. We actually have been able to baby sit OUR LITTLE PRINCESS 3-4 times a month. Then a few months ago my CANCER returned with a vengeance. I wasn't going to live to see my Granddaughter's 5TH Birthday or our 50TH WEDDING Anniversary. There was a medication that could make this possible however we could NEVER afford it. I thanked the wonderful folks who treated me prepared to go home and die. They immediately said "give us a few days". In a few days we learned I qualified for assistance through PAN. PAN has made the impossible possible! I am able to receive the ONLY MEDICATION that knocked down my Prostate Cancer. In a few weeks I will have lived to celebrate my Granddaughter's 5TH Birthday and in December our 50TH WEDDING Anniversary. There are no words to express our gratitude for PAN. PAN HAS PROVIDED ME WITH THE ONLY WAY I WOULD HAVE LIVED TO SEE BOTH OF THESE CELEBRATION OF LIFE THIS YEAR. Yes CAPS can indicate shouting but I am shouting GOD BLESS PAN for giving me a new lease on life.
