WELCOME TO COUNT ME IN - TMT
I am hoping that you have come to this web site because of
yourself, a loved one or a friend and are seeking help or
can provide help. This web site was created to help those
sick with illness and/or aging. Please look around and see
what we have to offer and let us know how we can help you.
OUR HOPE
This web site was originally set up because of and dedicated
to my brother, Tom, to help not only him, but anyone in need
during their time of crisis due to illness and/aging. Sadly,
Tom passed away, less than 6 months after his diagnosis, on
September 12, 2008, and this web site is now dedicated to
him and his memory in hopes of helping others.
Tom had advanced stage 3 bowel cancer. Shortly after his
diagnosis, he was unable to work. He had problems getting
disability while he battled for his life. It wasn't long
before his bills piled up and his financial worries became
an emotional burden.
While his illness advanced quickly, we, as a family, rallied
around him with emotional support and any financial help we
could give him. Fundraisers were planned and while we were
busy organizing them, we realized that there must be others
out there in the same situation that are too ill to help
themselves. The financial, health, emotional and spiritual
burdens are overwhelming and through this web site, we hope
to alleviate, even if just a little, some of that burden.

CAN YOU HELP? YOU SURE CAN!
This web site is a collective effort by family and friends
who are helping raise funding and researching to provide
helpful information on organizations that also help with
funding, health topics, as well as, emotional and spiritual
support.
Helping people in such a capacity is also overwhelming,
because as we found out, their needs are more than we could
have imagined. We are hoping that with our help and yours,
some of that burden of not knowing where to turn can be
solved by providing information and financial assistance
during their times of struggle.
