Our dear friend Alena experienced a sudden subarachnoid hemorrhage earlier this month, leaving her in the neuro ICU for three intense weeks. She is now working hard in rehab, showing the same strength and spirit that make her such a bright presence in all our lives.

As she focuses on healing, we’re hoping to ease the financial strain that comes with medical bills, treatments, and the long road to recovery. Any support—whether through donations or sharing this page—will help lighten her load and allow her to concentrate fully on getting better. Thank you for standing with her.
