Help Beth Beat Cancer
Donation protected
Family & Friends,
As many of you know, our dear friend Beth Weil Kirkpatrick, has been diagnosed with Stage 4 colorectal cancer. The cancer has spread to her liver.
The impact of the diagnosis is extensive. Beth has already undergone multiple MRIs, scans (PET/CT) and bloodwork. She will have a liver biopsy on Oct 29th and portacath installed on Oct 30th. She starts an aggressive chemo treatment on Oct 31st.
The physical effects will be immense. 4-5 months of chemotherapy to shrink the tumor in her colon plus the cancer in her liver. She will have two surgeries in late winter to hopefully remove the tumor and save her from a permanent colostomy bag. The long term for Beth is that she will be unable to work for the next year. If you know her, you know that she loves her job as a flight attendant.
The financial impact of all this is monumental i.e. hospitalizations, chemotherapy( and possible radiation), scans, etc... We ask that you help in any way you can- no amount too small. We need to keep Beth's stress and anxiety level down and not having to worry about a financial burden would be a huge help. She just needs to focus on staying strong to get through the next year. She wants to be able to be there for her beautiful boys, Aidan and Gavin.
If you are unable to help please share this link and keep Beth in your prayers.
Many thanks,
Chris & Vicky
