These are just a few of the stories of the people the Gurucharri Foundation has been able to help financially.

Patient X
Patient has been assisted by the foundation in the past. She has been in the hospital for the past two weeks with recurrent breast cancer once again. Her disease is in her brain again but now throughout her spine and spinal fluid. She has cord compression from the tumors and has subsequent paralysis of both legs and in incontinent. She went home to Jefferson City with hospice care. Her neighbor is helping care for her and her one and a half year old daughter. She does not have the funds to pay the attached bill for her utilities. Hospice has found funding to assist with day-to-day needs such as food, and they are funding the private adoption process to help expedite a private adoption of the young child while the patient is still alive, competent and able to participate in choosing the right family for her daughter. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. This will be her last request to the Gurucharri Foundation. She wanted me to express her sincere gratitude and that she is sorry she will not be able to pay you back so as to continue the good work you are doing. The Foundation has helped to keep her and her daughter together by helping them maintain livable conditions with proper utilities for the past two years.

Patient Y
Patient is 4 years old with cancer. Patients grandmother is the caregiver and had to limit her work hours to bring him to the hospital. Her electricty will be cut off this week. Please consider helping.

Patient Z
Patient is a single man in his 50's working as a truck driver. He has lung cancer and is unable to work at this time. His sister moved in from out of town to care for him and has been helping to pay his bills since his savings ran out. He could currently use help with his utilities and truck payment.
