To all our friends, family, and kind strangers —
We’re reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for your support for our dear friend Anthony, who is bravely battling Stage 4 esophageal cancer.
It was two years ago, on June 13 — St. Anthony’s Day — when he received the diagnosis that would turn his world upside down. Since that moment, Anthony has fought this disease with grace, courage, and unwavering faith.
The last six months have been especially brutal. Anthony has been in and out of the ICU, facing intense treatments and complications that have drained him physically, emotionally, and financially. He remains in the fight of his life — and he needs our help more than ever.
Alongside Anthony every step of the way is his loving husband, Michael. The two have built a life together rooted in love and hard work. As many know, they run a local flower shop — a business that has brought joy to so many. But with Anthony’s health situation and the constant demands of medical care, the shop has suffered. Michael is doing everything he can to keep both Anthony’s care and their business afloat — but it’s an uphill battle.
The soaring medical bills, loss of income, and emotional toll are overwhelming. That’s why we’re asking for your help.
Your donation will go directly toward:
Cancer treatments, ICU costs, and ongoing medical expenses
Recovery and rehabilitation care
Basic living expenses for Anthony and Michael
Support for their flower shop while Michael tends to Anthony’s care
If you’ve ever met Anthony and Michael, you know the love and light they bring to the world. Please consider donating, sharing their story, and sending your prayers and positive energy. Every bit of support means more than words can say.
Thank you for standing up as friends in this deeply difficult time.
With gratitude,
#TeamAnthony #SupportSmallBusiness #HelpAnthonyHeal #LoveIsLove
