It is with a heavy heart to share that Crystal's mom, Donna, was diagnosed with Stage 3 stomach cancer. If you know anything about the Kelso family, you know that they would take the shirt off their backs to serve others. Now it's our turn to help her and her family in their time of need! Below you'll find a message from Crystal.

"Our family is facing an incredibly difficult and heartbreaking season. Donna Girten—beloved mother, wife, grandmother, and friend—has recently been diagnosed with Stage 3 stomach cancer. At this time, the cancer is not operable and has spread to affect multiple organs.

This diagnosis comes after an already challenging year for her. Over the past year, she has endured numerous serious health issues, including the loss of her vision in one eye and heart-related complications. Despite everything, she has continued to face each day with strength and courage.

Unfortunately, her insurance coverage is limited, and the financial strain from ongoing medical care, treatments, travel, and daily living expenses is becoming overwhelming. With this devastating news, our family’s greatest wish is to help remove the financial burden so we can focus fully on the next steps, treatment decisions, comfort, and time together—not bills and stress.

Most importantly, we ask for your prayers, love, and positive thoughts during this incredibly hard time.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support.

With gratitude,

Crystal Kelso, Mark Girten, Melissa Keith & Family"
