A patient in her early 40s is a mother of 4 children. She is currently not working due to treatment side effects and pain. The patient wishes she could return to work and is struggling emotionally with not being able to provide for her family.
A single patient in his early 50s has been in and out of the hospital for several different medical issues. He was able to secure housing after previously living in his car, but the facility unfortunately closed unexpectedly. He is back to living in his car and is doing his best to manage all of his appointments. Any assistance will go a long way to help him get back on his feet.
Every year, the staff at DFCI raises money for patients and families who are experiencing financial difficulties during the holiday season. 100% of your donation will go to our patients to help buy a holiday meal, gas to visit friends and families and/or gifts for loved ones. We hope you will join us to help make their holidays a little bit brighter during this very difficult time.
