Cancer patient’s story is inspiring

Thanks to Mary Shinn for writing the Sept. 3 article, “Durango man living full life after pancreatic cancer diagnosis.”

Tom Riesing’s approach to dealing with his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is truly inspirational. It is unfortunate that many of the treatments are not covered by insurance and have resulted in Tom and his wife using their savings and accruing debt.

I hope other readers who were moved will join me in supporting Tom’s efforts by donating to his GoFundMe site.

Every amount donated will help Tom continue his quality of life.
