Karin needs our help!  Last March our dear friend, Karin Rule, was diagnosed with breast cancer.  This came as quite a shock to everyone who knows and loves her. Karin has been undergoing chemotherapy and her tumor has shrunk significantly.  The chemo has not been kind to Karin and she has been unable to work since being diagnosed back in March. She has had to discontinue chemo; Although we are hopeful the treatment she did complete will be enough, she still faces surgery and possibly radiation treatments.
Because of what lies ahead, Karin will not likely be able to return to work anytime soon.

Many of you know and love Karin and what a loving special, kind, thoughtful, funny, and good friend she is to everyone she meets.  The emotional and financial burden of surviving breast cancer is a challenge.  Karin will not ask for help herself so I think it's time we reach out to her.  Let's try to ease the burden for her and possibly try to at least raise enough money to take care of some of her growing medical and living expenses for the next few months so she doesn't have the stress of that weighing on her.

This is where you and this fund come in.  While expenses keep adding up, we are reaching out to our amazing and supportive network of family and friends to help in whatever way they can.  Any donation is greatly appreciated and will be a huge help to Karin during the next few months.

A few examples of what the funds raised through this site will be used for:
 -  Medical expenses
 -  Rent
 -  Utilities
 -  Prescription medications
 -  Transportation to medical appointments
 -  Other bills that are adding up while Karin is out of      work

Thank you all for reading and considering helping Karin out in her journey to a full recovery!!
