You are not alone.

  Your life can quickly become an incredible whirlwind of  confusing emotions, appointments, and other stressing aspects  when diagnosed with cancer, or any severe medical condition.  This is also true if you are a caregiver.  We personally experienced a profound overload that made routine daily living quite difficult [for us].   It took too long for me,  (- yes, "me" more than "we")  to   accept the help from friends, family,  business associates, and even complete strangers. Once we learned to accept help, our lives were greatly enriched, and changed forever by those people.  Thank you everyone!

This site was originally created by friends as a fund raiser for Bonnie's medical needs.  Bonnie and I wished to evolve friendsofbonnie.org  to help you understand yourself, and provide basic information to hopefully assist you.  We wanted to relate our experiences to you so that you can avoid the many mistakes that we made. Please allow us to help you.

  NOTE: The "About Us" page is at many points uncomfortably revealing.  It is the unedited  story of our journey and contains faith, hope, love, and despair.  Not everybody should read it. That is your decision.  Your journey will undoubtedly take different roads, but for the moment, your, and  our lives have reached a nexus.

You are not alone.

 The information presented on this site is a personal opinion and reader discretion is advised.
