Battling Cancer, Middletown Woman Asks for GoFundMe Help

Local woman battling breast cancer aims to raise $10,000

A Middletown woman battling breast cancer—and the financial burden that comes along with the disease—is asking for locals to help in any way they can. 

The Help Meg Fight! GoFundMe page created by Meg Calpin Lands aims to raise $10,000. So far, donors have pledged $1,400 to help. 

"The hardest thing to do, sometimes, is to reach out and ask others for help- you want to do it all on your own," Lands writes on her GoFundMe page. "But there comes a time when you know you have to let others in, not for yourself, but for the family you love and are trying to care for!"

Lands writes that she hopes the page will help bring people together in the battle against cancer.
