Everyone meet my best friend Amy. She has been fighting a losing battle against a rare, incurable disease called Scleroderma since 2001. 
Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation and fibrosis (thickening) of the skin and other areas of the body. In Amy’s case she has the more severe form, Systemic Scleroderma which has lead to the weakening of her heart, lungs, esophagus, and other organs in her body. Amy has lived with this disease for over two decades. She has underwent multiple surgeries, procedures, testing, and treatments ultimately to no avail. Amy has exhausted all treatment options except for one known as IVIG (immunoglobulin). 
The hope is that this treatment can help do what other treatments have not and ultimately slow the progression of this debilitating disease.  Along with this new treatment Amy still is in need of help affording everyday medical expenses like dental costs, eye speciality treatments, and durable medical equipment. Amy is in desperate to help with these fiscal challenges. My bestie has given her life to advocating for others living with this disease. She volunteers countless hours of her time to making sure people who are affected by scleroderma are not alone and get the resources and education they need.

Amy is the best Godmommy (Mimi) to my babies and the most selfless person I know. She is such an inspiration to so many around her, braving her fight with such a positive outlook despite her challenging diagnosis but now is the time she needs our help! Please consider donating to help Amy with her astronomical medical expenses! No donation is too small. Every penny counts! Much love and thanks in advance!
