Hope For Sandy

8 May

IMG_7537Hey Everybody!

I don’t have a ton of followers but I’m hoping that the ones I do have are willing to share this. My mom, Sandy, is battling her third round of cancer. It has metastasized from a previous bout with breast cancer. I started a fundraiser for her because while she is being treat through the VA hospital, her benefits will not cover DNA testing. If we’re able to reach our goal, not only will she be able to get the testing done but treatment. This test could help my brother and sister, myself and my daughter should any of us fall ill in this way. It’s a pretty hefty price tag but she is so worth it. She has been on multiple deployments to fight for your freedom and mine. She’s witnessed and experienced things I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. And yet…she’s still here. Things are moving along and I’m so incredibly grateful for all those that have been so kind and generous to contribute to this fundraiser. I’m asking not only for donation but for this to be shared. And even if you can’t donate, you can help by sharing this message. Reblog it. Facebook it. Reddit. Tweet it. Please, we really need this help. I’m struggling to come to terms with having to explain to my four year old about her grandma being sick…they are best friends, those two. My mama is a fighter, and a winner at that. I don’t know what God holds in store for her but I’m praying…HARD. She has been a light in her community and is always prepared to make sure everyone is fed, has clothes, or just a friend if need be. Despite her illness, she continues to give. Again, I’ll tell you, she’s so worth it. So please, if you led to do so, please help. Please share. Thank you.
