LINDA'S FIGHT

As some of you know my sister Linda (Noble) Rodgers has been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. The difficulty it takes for me to even write those words sums up the incredible love we as a family have for her. Most of you know my sister from Salem and have been the beneficiaries of her kindness, her love, her support and her incredible friendship. I first hand was the person who most benefited from this when she was my bone marrow donor and gave me life. She also left her own life behind to come live with me and be my caregiver for over a year. Amazing doesn't begin to describe this kindness. She is an incredible wife, sister, daughter, friend, pet mom and has always put everyone else first throughout her entire life. Now she needs us. The fight my sister is facing and believe me she will fight, is going to be very challenging and very costly. We are hoping to ease some of the financial burden so the travel, the prescription cost and overall living expenses are taken care of and she can concentrate on the fight she has in front of her. My family and I have initiated a Go Fund Me and we humbly ask for any donations you can assist with. We know times are tough for everyone so anything donated will be greatly appreciated and used solely for my sister's expenses. I know Linda would want me to say if a financial donation is to much to ask right now then please just say a prayer or just keep her and her family in your thoughts. From the bottom of our heart we thank you. The family of Linda Noble Rodgers
