"I am a 46-year-old Stage III breast cancer patient. I lost both breasts and have been through chemotherapy and radiation. My stay at Hope Lodge was a miracle. Without Hope Lodge, I would not have made it. Others who come to Hope Lodge feel the same way. We meet people who know how we feel, and everyone needs someone that can understand what you are going through. At Hope Lodge, the workers and volunteers are a gift to us. All those who volunteer to make us dinner, play bingo, or just talk to us are a real gift. Hope Lodge is one of the best things that has happened in my life. I will always remember the kindness and love of everyone there." - Christine G.
