KC HELP
The Knights Community Hospital Equipment Lend Program
Dear KC Help
I would like to share the incredible, positive impact that KC HELP made on my family when we were in need. I was raised in a very close-knit family, with my Aunt's and Uncle's more akin to parental figures and my cousins, more like siblings. My Uncle, Larry, AKA Hot Dog (as I've known him my entire life) had received a cancer diagnosis in December of 2023. Larry is a retired Airforce veteran and a true fighter through and through. He received multiple surgeries that left him bedridden and unfortunately, unsuccessful in eradicating the cancer. My cousin, Crystal, who is his caretaker tried finding a solution to bring him home as soon as possible and was running into hurdle after hurdle. The VA was unable to help with any matter of speed and was looking at a very large bill to rent a hospital bed and device to get him in and out of his wheelchair. KC HELP provided these things at NO COST and we have been able to get him back home where he is most comfortable. We had a large family get together the day after his homecoming and it was so special. This was huge for our family and we are so thankful for an organization like KC Help that can provide help for people in desperate need.
With sincere thanks,
Nicole McCalmant
