My name is Jeff. I am asking on behalf of my daughter Allyson. She was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease over a year ago and has been learning to manage this new life ever since. In the last few months, complications resulting from the disease have worsened. These issues necessitated numerous hospital stays (using up sick leave) and have resulted in her not being able to do her job until she's better. She needs a little help to get her through this time of recovery - to regain the weight she lost, build her strength, and then get back to work.

I am extremely proud of my daughter. She is facing each day with courage, faith, and love, even as her finances dry up. With your help, perhaps some stress can be removed and her healing will quicken.

Since she is unable to work, these funds will help with regular monthly bills (rent, car, gas, food) until she can back to work.
