Robin is a beautiful wife, mother, and grandmother who has devoted her life to helping her family and others. She is so loved! After battling cancer for the last four years, she has unexpectedly developed an incredibly rare condition called paraneoplastic syndrome. Due to the cancer, her body has attacked her central nervous system, causing her to lose her sight, use of legs, arms, and speech.  

My dad, Dan, is driving daily to see her while also caring for my brother Michael, who is challenged with Down’s Syndrome. Due to COVID, no other family members are allowed to visit. I have been unable to visit her since she was admitted, and as she has lost her speech, I am no longer able to talk with her by phone. 

Insurance has covered some costs associated with her cancer however we are unsure whether it will cover this. We are hoping to get her the best help possible at the Mayo Clinic!! This fundraiser is for family, friends and anyone else who would like to help in defraying the costs associated with her fight.  

Please consider making a donation if you are able to, and please pray for my family. I will also post regular updates here as we learn more. With much gratitude - Kara 

Ps - Dad / Dan is unaware of this fundraiser - he would never ask for help.*
