Meet OLGA
Olga is blessed with the big family she had always wanted. After her husband’s passing, her seven children have been by her side through the good and the bad times. When diagnosed with cancer a few months ago in March, the support from her family became crucial.
Two of Olga’s sisters are cancer survivors. She knew what their journey was like. With family by her side, Olga feels she can fight cancer and win.
Meanwhile, chemotherapy has already begun for Olga. Doctor Terrence Herman is her oncologist at the DHR Health Advanced Care Center. Radiation under the care of Dr. Oscar Garcia is the next step in her oncologic treatment.
“I am thankful for all the donors, especially DHR employees that support the fundraisers by the Foundation to help patients like me,” says Olga. Financial assistance from the Renaissance Cancer Foundation will help cover the costs of her upcoming radiation treatment. “God bless everyone involved with the Foundation. Thank you.”
Her family prays and hopes for the day she will be free of cancer — including twenty five grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Every single one of them give her a reason to fight and overcome.
