With hope for a brighter future for people affected with ME / CFS around the world, the family of Dionne Essink asked family and friends to support OMF’s research. Their vision is that no patients should ever suffer like their beautiful daughter/sister, Dionne. They shared this touching message of hope for all:
This donation is in loving memory of our daughter and sister Dionne Essink.
She passed away at the age of 28.
For 19 years, Dionne suffered from ME / CFS which was at its worst for the last 8 years.
We want to donate the money that we raised at her funeral. Our family isn’t complete anymore, we miss her a lot but Dionne will always be in our hearts.
Keep up the good work OMF!
In memory of Dionne, and all loved ones lost by ME / CFS, we are steadfast in our mission to improve the lives of all people affected with ME / CFS and find a cure.
Donate your appreciated stock directly to OMF and you can receive an immediate income-tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities on the date of transfer (even if you originally paid much less for them).
