To The Editor: Nadine McCaw Thanks Community For Support

January 20, 2011

I wanted to write a letter to the editor to express all the appreciation that we have to you and everyone that reads your online news source for the north end of Escambia County. You have published every event fundraiser to help build awareness of my Clear Cell Renal Carcenoma (Kidney Cancer)and the struggles we have faced since my insurance has dropped my coverage. I was able to find some help through some of your readers with the medical bills that have come in so far.

I have a few good days but more bad than good. I have a LONG fight ahead and will be on chemo for at least 6-8 more months to fight the cancer that has spread to my lungs and lymph node system. This has been very trying on me and my whole family, emotionally, physically and financially. The prayers and the support the community have given to me has been more than I could have ever asked for. You have helped me to keep my faith strong to fight the fight of this horrible disease.

I have found many angels that walk about the streets of Century, and I hope that they continue to touch the lives of the different people of our town. The food that had been brought, the donations to help with the medical bills that have been piling up, the benefits that have been held and the participants that helped out during those functions has been more than I ever expected to receive. I pray that God blesses each and every one in the way that I have been blessed.

    My Mother had breast cancer this past year. I know the hardships that CANCER puts on a family. I will think of you daily and hope for a speedy recovery for you.
