Branda's brave Battle

Donation protected
     Hello, this family is very near and dear to my heart, I consider them my own. Brenda is a mother, grandmother and friend to many. I want to ensure her the best time she has left to fulfill new and amazing memories that the family will have to cherish for a life time.  It would mean the world to me if you took a moment out of your time to read this.
     Brenda has had her fair share of trails. After suffering a massive stroke in 2013 in which the doctors were sure she wouldn't make it, she worked her way back to health and happiness. Sadly at the end of 2014 she unexpectedly lost her son Paul. That was an unimaginable loss and something she has never gotten over, no parent ever gets over the loss of their child. Now here we are not even two years later with more bad news. In late April, Brenda was diagnosed with extensive (stage 4) small cell lung cancer that had metastasized to her liver. This was a shocking diagnosis that noboby was prepared for, but she was ready to fight. Brenda did 5 rounds of chemotherapy, while getting pneumonia twice and sepsis during treatments and finally received the news that it had not been helping at all. In fact, some of the tumors in her liver had gotten larger and there is a new area in her lung. There was nothing else the doctor could do. This came as a horrific blow to someone who is a fighter and has all the hope in the world.
      I am asking you to please help Brenda fulfill her "Bucket List". There are things she wants to do, places she wants to go and her funds are very limited due to living expenses, medical bills and medication and she has been unable to work for some time do to her numerous health issues. I know and love Brenda , just like many of you and I want her to enjoy every single second of her life. 
      Please donate anything you can and if you cannot , please say a prayer and share the page. I thank you and know Brenda and her entire family thank you.
