"Without the support and care of DCF, I could not have survived through my most challenging times. I have always been the strong one, helping others, and now I needed help and a lot of it. I'm so thankful and grateful for Desert Cancer Foundation. I could not have been able to get through this day to day without the support of my husband, sons, family, my work family, friends, clients, strangers, DCF, doctors, nurses, caregivers, and my faith in God."

"The Desert Cancer Foundation had a profound impact on my ability to recover from my treatments. Most importantly, it gave me the peace of mind to know that I wouldn’t be responisble for thousands of dollars owed to doctors and hospitals for years into the future. The foundation’s assistance was a game changer for me. It relieved much of the stress and anxiety that naturally occurs with cancer diagnosis." 

"My journey would have been more difficult and I don’t know what would have happened and I would have chosen a lesser treatment plan, so I wouldn’t be under such financial strain.  I also lost my job at the same time as my cancer diagnosis, so I was afraid I would lose my home during treatment. Desert Cancer Foundation generously paid for my medical expenses, I was able to focus on paying my housing costs and rest at home during chemotherapy and surgery recovery."

"I was diagnosed in January 2022, days before my 40th birthday. I felt something and went in to my doctor and found out I had cancer. I had to go through chemotherapy and was told this would cause alot fo stress on my body. This also took motherhood away from me. Desert Cancer Foundation helped me when I was let go of my job and didn’t have health insurance anymore. They assisted me with my insurance payments, as I couldn’t financially pay for my $728 insurance premiums and gave me a peace of mind. Thank you."
