Hello. My name is Dana and I'm asking for any help you might be led to give.

I'm setting this fund up for my niece, Stephanie. She was a victim of a horrible automobile accident years ago, which has resulted in 14 surgeries over the years; total ankle replacements with 11 revisions (she is now 49). Each time she felt that "this is the one that will work," but that success never came to fruition. She fought the good fight; she's a warrior and the strongest woman I know! This one tragic accident has left her in pain for 30 years. Several months ago, the pain once again became unbearable; X-rays revealed the most recent replacement ankle didn't hold. She is now faced with having no other options available except amputation. This is scheduled for December 15th.

Stephanie had never asked for help; she's held her head high and pushed through the disappointment and pain. She now needs help, so I'm asking! Stephanie is faced with health care costs, monthly bills that she will not be able to pay due to not being able to work. She has applied for disability; however, this may take over a year to be approved. She is grieving so many losses right now; any assistance you can give would bless her so very much!

I ask that you prayerfully consider donating to ease this hardship.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
