Anne Young was recently diagnosed with stage IV ovarian cancer. The Youngs have a long road ahead of them and are hoping for a miracle, but in the meantime, they will need our help. Anne is a mother of three, and a stay at home mom. Her husband, Pete will need to continue to work. They could use help with funds to cover medical co-pays, gas, help with kids, meals, and everything that goes with the overwhelming task of kicking cancer's ass. This fund is being set up with the hope that finances can be the least of their concerns as they set ahead on their journey through this terrible disease.

When Anne posted her story to her friends on Facebook recently she requested a specific set of rules, and I think it would be good to abide by those here as well. These are her rules that she posted on Facebook:

RULES. 1. It's so lovely if you'd like to pray for me, or you are so sorry this is happening. But please don't say that. It makes me feel so fragile and sick. 2. My kids know about this, but we'd like to prevent any googling. So if you speak to Adella, just say "cancer." 3. Bonus points for curse words. 4. There will be ways you can help, but I'm for some weird reason I am stubbornly resistant to it.

Thank you for your help and support for the Youngs!
