"The past year has been filled with anxiety about my child's illness, compounded by the endless medical expenses. Financial assistance from the Catastrophic Illness in Children Relief Fund reduced that burden immeasurably. Like a lot of parents, I never considered that a serious illness would strike my child. It is not until the bills starting coming in that you realize the magnitude of it all. Financial assistance from the Catastrophic Illness in Children Relief Fund was there when we needed it."
