Dana Salcedo, our dear friend and colleague, mother of four beautiful children, wife, daughter and dedicated Oncology Nurse was diagnosed with a huge Schwannoma spinal tumor. Dana became quickly debilitated and underwent a complex emergency surgery to remove it. Due to the complexity of the surgery and residual symptoms, she is now facing several months of rehabilitation. This has placed a catastrophic hit on her family's finances. She has no disability insurance or any other form of income while she is out of work. She is accumulating huge hospital and rehabilitation bills, not to mention their household expenses. Dana has always given of herself, without hesitation, to both her family and patients. She is the most beautiful and charismatic woman we know.  Her family along with her work family implores you to find it in your heart to stand in the gap for Dana and her family.
