Ways to Support
So many people have asked how they can help, and I am incredibly grateful. Cancer treatment affects far more than just medical care, it also means living away from home, managing two households, coordinating caregivers and trying to keep everyday life moving for my children.
There is never any expectation, but if you would like to support me, my family or another person facing blood cancer, here are a few meaningful ways to do that.
Send a Meal
Treatment days and medical appointments can be long and unpredictable. DoorDash gift cards help provide meals for me and whichever family member or friend is in Houston caring for me that week.
They also give my family in Virginia an easy way to feed the kids when schedules become overwhelming.
Please send electronic gift cards to: AnnBosiack@gmail.com
Every amount is deeply appreciated and will be put to good use.
Support My Niece’s Fundraiser
My niece, Anna Chase, has taken everything our family is experiencing and turned it into a reason to help other people affected by blood cancer.
She is raising money to support blood cancer patients, their families and the research that gives all of us more hope. I am incredibly proud of her and would be so grateful for anyone who chooses to support her campaign.
Become a Stem Cell Donor
My stem-cell transplant is possible because my sister was willing and able to become my donor. Not every patient has a matching donor within their family.
By joining the NMDP Registry (formerly known as Be The Match), you could someday be the match that gives another person a chance at life.
For eligible donors, joining begins with a simple cheek swab mailed directly to your home. Most people who register will never be asked to donate, but for the person who needs your exact match, your decision could mean everything.
If you are not eligible to register, you can still help by sharing the link and encouraging a younger person in your life to join.
Thank You
Whether you send a meal, support Anna Chase, join the donor registry, share these resources or simply continue sending love and prayers, please know how much it means to me.
My village continues to carry me through this, and I will never stop being grateful.
