JD Marshall from A Mission of Love on the Loss of a Child
Episode description
My depression gets the best of me sometimes and I get horribly intrusive thoughts and I worry about losing Benji. My friend JD Marshall had those nightmares become his reality when he lost his daughter Stephanie to Cancer. Somehow JD found the strength to carry on and develop A Mission of Love which helps other families who have kids fighting Cancer. One of the fundraising arms of that is Comedy 4 Cancer, which is how I met him.
JD is a kind and selfless man. He's a strong and humble man. I am thankful I know people like him because it reaffirms there is strength and kindness in the world.
Obviously with a pandemic right now, there aren't Comedy 4 Cancer fundraisers currently, but the disease is not taking a hiatus unfortunately. If you would like to help other families facing this nightmare you can either by following JD on Facebook and seeing when he links directly to families seeking donations, or by donating to A Mission of Love.
