Christine D’Annibale

Donation protected
Our friend Christine was diagnosed with a large benign brain tumor this fall. The tumor has been affecting every part of Christine's day-to-day life, making each day more difficult as a mother to her two young children and her career as a hairdresser.

Christine will have surgery on November 16 at Columbia Hospital in NY. Because of Christine's tumor size, her surgery will take place over two different surgeries. This type of approach is due to the complication of the tumor's position and size. The first surgery will be on Nov 16. Christine will remain at Columbia until the second surgery can be done. When Christine is discharged from Columbia, she will be transferred to a Rehab facility where doctors have explained that she will need to re-learn many cognitive and physical functions.

On top of everything, this surgery and rehabilitation will come with a tremendous financial burden. Not only will Christine not be able to work, but it is also unknown exactly when she will be able to return as her rehab will be a long process. There is no time frame for how long Christine's recovery will take.

Growing up in Waldwick, we were raised to care for each other, and we need that help again for our friend! Christine will have a very long road ahead, a road that will be filled with mounting medical bills, household expenses and child care, and a career that will be on hold for the foreseeable future with no income.

With the holiday season upon us, we know that for many, money is tight. Anything you can give to help our friend Christine would mean so much! We want our friend Christine to worry about nothing other than getting better for her partner Chris and her children Luca and Ella and getting her life back.
