Campaign Story
Thank you for taking the time to read this. My wife Soojung has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Soojung began her chemotherapy on August 17, 2023 Thursday. She will undergo 4 sessions of chemotherapy every 3 weeks. After the size of her tumor is reduced she will eventually need surgery to remove her breast.
We would sincerely be grateful for any help you can offer through this medical process. Soojung has used all of her Paid Time Off and no longer has leave of absence days available for this year of 2023. So unfortunately she may not be able to go to work due to the effects of the chemotherapy. I'm doing my best working part time and looking for full time work right away. Again so any help would be greatly appreciated. We have two sons, Aaron and Donovan who are attending school.
Let us pray that this medical journey will be successful and get rid of the cancer.
Thank you very much for any help or support you can send our way.
Sincerely,
Kevin Clark
