AnCan’s good buddy and Advanced Prostate Cancer Virtual Group participant, Jerry Deans – who also happens to be Vice Chair of our partner UsTOO’s Board – has been using a wonderful service, Mercy Medical Angels for some time. He recently wrote to us:
I want people to know about a service that is being offered to those who qualify financially or are veterans. It’s called Mercy Medical Angels https://mercymedical.
They have transported me free of charge from Richmond, Virginia to NYC on two occasions.
One trip was for a clinical trial at NY Presbyterian for a Progenics 18F]DCFPyL PSMA PET scan and the second trip was to meet with Dr Charles Drake for discussion of next steps in my treatment. One of the pilots Royce Repka recorded this video.
Jerry recently published a book on his and his wife, Patsi’s struggle with disease and much more. The book is titled Lost But Not Forgotten – read the Customer Reviews and you’ll find this tome is full of hope!
Onward and truly upwards, Jerry!!!
