“With Fifth Season’s financial help and support, we’ve been able to catch up on a lot of large and small things that had been getting out of control while we were adjusting to the new challenges of living with cancer. I know some people use their Fifth Season funds for things like taking trips or buying some things they’ve always wanted, but for us peace of mind is more about having the daily necessities of life covered. It keeps the stress level down and lets life continue to be as normal as possible – and that really helps the healing process.
“To us, saying that Fifth Season is a financial option that saved our lives isn’t at all an overstatement. It gave us back our options. It gave us back our freedom. It gave us back a reason to hope. And it gave us an opportunity to concentrate on healing. I know that without Fifth Season our family would be struggling now instead of making the most of each day.
“With the advanced life insurance funds we got from Fifth Season, I felt free to pursue medical and pharmaceutical options that would never have been covered by even the best health insurance. I even went to Rome, Italy, to be part of a new experimental treatment – and as other breakthrough treatments emerge, I feel I can afford to take advantage of those options as well. That’s a kind of empowerment that affects you positively at all times.
“I know another person with cancer – a widow – who I feel would benefit greatly from the financial and emotional support of Fifth Season, so I’m going to tell her all about it. She probably has no idea that a simple potential solution to her financial situation is only a phone call away. It may sound like a cliché, but the truth is – Fifth Season is a true Godsend.
“One of the best things about Fifth Season’s funding is that you’re completely free to use the money in any way you choose. We even used some of the money from our first policy to cover payroll for my business. It just helps to keep things moving along normally even when you’re faced with life-altering circumstances that are anything but normal.
“Everyone we talked to at Fifth Season honestly cared about our individual situation and even though they’re business professionals they’ve become people we personally think of as friends. In fact, I can’t recall a time when discussing the challenges of our situation with them resulted in anything less than a feeling of complete reassurance.
“Fifth Season enabled us to overcome the mounting problems and concerns that were confronting us with cancer – to put the worry aside and concentrate on the things that deserve to be priorities, like family, friends, faith – and getting better.”
