This is my patient James. I share his story with permission.
James has always been a hard-working and caring individual, devoted to his family and his community. As his doctor, I have witnessed his strength and resilience firsthand. Not only is James a melanoma survivor, but he has also faced unimaginable challenges in recent months. A few weeks ago, James experienced a heartbreaking loss when his son passed away after a long battle with cancer. The grief has been overwhelming for him and his wife, and just as they were trying to find their footing, tragedy struck again.
While still mourning, James was targeted by a scammer who managed to steal his entire retirement savings. This devastating financial blow has left James and his wife facing significant stress and uncertainty about their future. On top of this, they have had to replace their furnace and now need new brakes for their car—expenses that only add to their worries.
James has worked hard his entire life and deserves better than what has happened to him. My hope is to help restore his retirement savings and give him and his wife peace of mind as they continue to age and face any additional expenses that arise. I took an oath to help my patients, and while this isn't ordinary, it would be life changing for James and his family to receive support in this extremely difficult time. Please consider joining me in supporting James.
