Testimonials

The best way to measure the value of the services provided by Hope Lives is by asking a Hope Lives client directly. Here is what one Hope Lives client had to say about the services she received…

I just used my last voucher and wanted to THANK all of “Hope Lives” for the happiness you gave me during the last five months.  It has been rough but I made it and they tell me I am cancer free!  Still scary since I still have to check in with oncology for the next two years every 4-5 months.  But have to focus on the fact that it was Stage 1B and had not gone into the lymph nodes.  With the chemotherapy, they hope that they have killed any little cell that might have escaped.

I can’t tell how wonderful all your donors were…facials, massage, bras, shirt, swim suit, turbans. Unbelievable how generous and kind they were.

And a big thank you for all your gifts at the start of my journey that I use ALL the time…wigs, blanket, turbans, etc. etc.
