C. Rosalind Bell vs. Cancer

Donation protected
Message from Grace Livingston and Geoff Proehl:

Our good friend C. Rosalind Bell has begun chemotherapy for an aggressive form of breast cancer following a lumpectomy in late November of 2016. Anyone who has undergone cancer care or known someone who has, understands that the year ahead with its relentless weekly regime of treatments and therapies including chemo and radiation will be challenging for Ros physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally.

 We have known Ros through her work as a community activist and a freelance artist. She is a founding Community Partner with the University of Puget Sound’s Race and Pedagogy Initiative and a co-founder of Tacoma’s The Conversation. We worked closely with her on The New Orleans Monologues (2007) and 1620 Bank Street (2012), plays that speak with honesty and compassion to the human condition. We are excited about her current project, writings on the intersection of family, history, and race in her home state of Louisiana. Beyond these accomplishments and contributions, Ros is known far and wide as a generous friend.

 To learn more about Ros’s first weeks of treatment and to follow her progress in the coming year, please join her Lotsa Helping Hands page https://my.lotsahelpinghands.com/community/c-rosalind-bell-vs-cancer/home. 

GoFundMe donations will help Ros with living and complementary medical expenses in the year ahead.

We invite you to join us in offering Ros your support in whatever way you can both in the immediate moment and in the months to come.

 Best – Grace Livingston and Geoff Proehl
