Eleanor Kim's 2019 Cancer Care Fund

As friends of Eleanor, we started this page to share her story of courage and joyful spirit. Eleanor was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2015. She bravely fought the disease with her positive attitude and spirit. Eleanor lights up any room she enters with her smile and ability to see everything life throws at her with the "glass is half full" attitude. Unfortunately, her cancer returned in December of 2016 causing her to start chemotherapy treatments again. In December 2018,  Eleanor was told the cancer had spread to her liver and she is in physical pain.  Consultations with a hematologist took place a few weeks ago and after more blood tests, her oncologist told her there is not much more the doctors can do for her.

One way we can support Eleanor through this challenging time is to ease some of her financial burdens. We hope to raise $50,000 to help defray her related expenses so she can focus on spending time with her family and allow Henry, her husband, to afford to take unpaid family leave so he can be with Eleanor and care for her. 

Please help us spread the word. Eleanor's spirit and grace has always been an inspiration to her family and friends. We are blessed to know her and to have her teach us what a brave, dignified fight looks like.  

We love you Eleanor!
