Penny becomes quiet, then tearful when she talks about the day she received her diagnosis. “It was the money,” she said. “Where would I get the money? How would I pay for it?”
Then she learned about Truman Medical Centers, the one health system Kansas City can’t live without… the one place that offers state-of-the-art academic medical care, regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.
“I’m just so grateful,” Penny told us. “Truman has done everything for me. I owe this hospital my life.”
We hear this every day: “Truman gave me my life back. I want others to have that same chance.”
You are that chance. WATCH Penny’s story, and GIVE to the 2018 Year-End Campaign.
By the time Coach Kelly’s pancreatic cancer was diagnosed, it was wrapped around the veins to the liver. Surgery, he was told, would not be an option. Willy Kelly, Sr. needed a game change. He got it the day he discovered Truman Medical Centers and the region’s only NanoKnife, made possible by a generous grant from the Hall Family Foundation.
Truman Medical Center takes care of our communities most vulnerable and that makes Kansas City Stronger.
