Dear Friends,

Angela Bradley is a light in our community and a loving and dedicated mother to 5 amazing kids. 

As some of you may know, Angela's oldest son, Tanner is in the hospital. He was brought in for gastrointestinal inflammation and bleeding. Tanner has lost 34 pounds and is expected to be hospitalized for a few more weeks. He has been given the diagnosis of ulcerative colitis, an autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system mistakes the cells of the intestinal walls for pathogens, and attacks the intestinal lining. Although the majority of the medical community believes there is no cure, there is a growing number of medical professionals and lay people who are discovering the effects of diet and stress on ulcerative colitis. Angela and Tanner are researching alternative treatment options, but for now, Tanner is being given strong antiinflammatory and immunosuppressants drugs to stabilize his condition.   

Angela has been running back and forth to the hospital, supporting Tanner, negotiating with doctors and nurses, and researching treatment options,  all while caring for the daily needs of her four younger children.  She has had to potpone a medical procedure that she needs for herself in the meantime. 

Lets show up as a community and support this amazing family!

No donation is too small. Even a few dollars can make a huge difference.
