Actress Valerie Harper Is Still With Us, But Desperately Needs Our Help

Valerie Harper's Story and GoFund Me page

Legendary actress Valerie Harper needs help. As you may know, she's been battling cancer and her insurance isn't covering all the costs. In fact, a crowdfunding page has been started by her husband to help with the costs of her cancer treatments.

For those who don't know, 79-year-old Valerie was diagnosed with lung cancer back in 2009 and then in 2013, doctors discovered she’d developed brain cancer. While it appeared to recede for some time, that's no longer the case.

Harper’s husband Tony Cacciotti has since started a GoFundMe campaign titled The Valerie Harper Cancer Support Fund. “Valerie is currently taking a multitude of medications and chemotherapy drugs as well as going through extreme physical and painful challenges now with around the clock, 24/7 care immediately needed, which is not covered by insurance,” the page states. “This is just part of the daily cost that is without a doubt a financial burden that could never be met alone. This GoFundMe initiative from Tony is to ensure she receives the best care possible. Here is a link.
