A
Promise Made in 1998 Being Filled

The Samaritan Group donates Funds

In
1998 a group of local residents saw
the need of medical assistance for
uninsured people living in
Gloucester. Thirteen years
later, the GMFC is "Keeping the
Promise" made by our organizers
as described by Chris Dyke.
I
was a self-employed electrician with
two beautiful daughters, Taylor and
Shelby.
Then,
at age 40, I suffered a heart attack
and lost my business. Without
health insurance, I couldn't afford
health medication.
Fortunately, I heard about
Gloucester-Mathews Free Clinic and
was able to schedule an appointment
with Susan Bonner, Physician
Assistant, at Gloucester-Mathews
Free Clinic.
To
my surprise, my blood sugar was 400
at my first visit. The
Clinic supplied me with testing
strips and insulin along with
regular check ups and heart
medication.
My
health got better, but our family's
life got worse. Taylor was
diagnosed with a rare lung disease
and passed in August
2010. I did not want to
leave her side. The
Clinic staff made sure that I got my
medication and were sensitive to our
family's needs during that tragic
time.
I
have been a compliant patient and am
happy to report that my diabetes is
well under control (around 130
versus 400!) And I have
started a new job with Phillips
Energy.
