From Tanya Brown to David Medley

Tanya Brown is a pre-school teacher, mother and grandmother who is currently tackling her second bout with breast cancer, which has spread to her lungs and her bones.  She wanted to thank her boyfriend, David Medley, a widower who lives long distance but traveled to take care of her after every treatment.

“He’s so special because he gives a lot and cares for me intensely. It all comes from his heart. He is like David of old, a man after God’s own heart. I thank you and the Caring On organization for what y’all are doing to let caregivers know they are appreciated. Too often caregivers are overlooked and they just keep giving and giving of themselves, time, and their resources.” CaringOn and Tanya thanked David with tickets to see his favorite jazz performer and a romantic night on the town.
