Natalie's Lupus Donations

Natalie is our 17 year old friend who is a junior in high school.  She was adopted from China by her mom Kris.  She also has a 12 year old sister named Merci.  Natalie was diagnosed with juvenile Lupus a few years ago.  She has had a tough few months with multiple medical issues and multiple hospitalizations, all from Lupus complications.  Every time she "flares", she needs to go back on high doses of steroids intravenously.  All of these events have stressed this family to the breaking point, both emotionally and financially.  There is also growing concern about her mom's job security because of all her absences related to Natalie's illness.  We'd like to lighten their load.  We are requesting a donation so that all of us together can make a difference for this family in paying off medical bills.  There is no time like the present.  This is important to us because this family never asks for any help and they need it more than anyone we know.  We are SOOO grateful for your help........
