Beast Mode (The Sequel)

As most of you know, Kelli Woodstock was diagnosed with a grade IV glioblastoma (brain tumor) back in July 2014. Even with it being a terminal diagnosis, Kelli turned on her beast mode and has been kicking this tumors butt and beating all odds. Life was becoming "normal" again with repeatedly positive MRIs showing no progression.

However, Kelli's most recent MRI, in April 2018, decided to show that there was a new tumor present the size of a ping-pong ball. It was reviewed and the surgeon deemed it operable and removed it with success. Recovery is occuring and she appears to be improving every day.

With the new tumor and recent surgery, Kelli has not been able to work her two jobs she previously held. Also, medical bills are beginning to add up. Along with the medical expenses from surgery, there are on-going copays for her medications and the multiple rehabilitation and therapy services she is participating in. Mike, Kelli's husband, has been working two jobs to try and bring in more money for his family on top of his already busy life. While raising two beautiful daughters and trying to keep their lives as normal as possible, driving Kelli to her appointments, keeping up on the house, and working two jobs, money should be the least of Mike and Kelli's worries.

Here is where you can turn on your beast mode and help assist the Woodstocks financially during this trying time. God does not give us what we cannot handle, but we should never have to handle situations such as this on our own. Kelli and Mike have been accepting and strong through this entire experience but maybe it is our turn to fight for them and let them relax a little. Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
