    She is the mother of two daughters, Kayla and  Kendra.   Karens mother has been there every possible moment along with her father who have been her whole supporters, with her father taking a leave of absence from work to help out, with Karen and taking care of Kendra.  Karen has had many surgeries....has been in a nursing home for months and has just recently went home.. only to go back in for a few days. She has been going thru intensive therapy..and only now is able to walk a bit, and uses a walker. She has many bills to pay, since she is unable to work. She has a loving family who is helping her in any and all ways that they can. The money raised would be for her to pay her bills, and to help her with household bills as well, until she can work again. This is going to be a long recovery.  The depression that sets in to someone going thru things like this are horrible, not only for her, but for her loving parents, and family. It would mean so much to me to see this campaign go well to help her, she was a pharmacy tech at Rite Aid in Johnstown, Pa and is know and loved by many. Would just like to put a smile on her face and hope for the new year. Would like to be able to have her mom, dad, sisters, and brother see her smile again. I want to see her smile. She is a good woman, and would be too humble to ask for anything for herself, so I am doing that. We are all so thankful to GOD that her life was not taken, GOD has a  reason for her to live..Help me Help her to know that people do care, Help me to help her smile, and to give the family at least some financial relief. I am grateful and thank you in advance for every $1.00 to help her.. deb
