" "Thank you all so much for bringing us hope, and help, when we needed it most." "FGP made life less stressful - I knew I could count on meals and someone to cut the grass, clean the house so we could focus on our children."

OUR STORIES

Graeme

Graeme

“There is no way to express my gratitude for FGP.  When Graeme was first diagnosed, everything was blurry – it was a whirlwind.  Trying to understand the diagnosis, manage communication with friends and family members and keep it together was challenging.  That’s an understatement.”

Ceili

Ceili

“She was a breath of fresh air. She took on this cancer with such a good spirit and she got tough fast. She was extremely well-read and investigative about what was going on but yet always looking for when she was going to get better and what life is going to be like after she gets through treatment and has cancer behind her.”

Meet Oliver

“Oliver was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in December 2016 at the age of 4. He came down with pneumonia and a week later we were at Children’s Hospital of Richmond learning the ropes of lumbar punctures and neutrophil counts. To be honest, most of that is a blur.”
