EDS: Help Cathi LIVE with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome

Donation protected
CATHI is .....
First and foremost, a daughter of the King
Her trust is in Him and knows He is the source of all good gifts!

Once a world-class athlete, this woman now lives with the severe challanges of two rare illnesses:  DYSAUTONOMIA and EHLERS DANLOS SYNDROME
both incurable and which often leave her not knowing whether she will be able to get out of bed in the morning.

The progressive degnerative effects of DA & EDS have taken away her dependability needed for employment.  She tearfully resigned from her career as a family therapist with the Achievement Center in Erie, PA  this past week but is ready for the 'NEW' life God has planned for her - whatever it looks like!

Cathi, nick-named "GG, God-Girl" has made service to others an important focus in her life. She is always ready to help another and continously looks for ways to serve God and her community. That part of her life will never stop, though it may look quite different as the days go by. 

We are raising funds to help with her high medical bills, lawyer fees associated with applying for disability and anything that will provide rest and normalcy to her life. Our goal of $15,000 is significant but small compared to the costs she has incurred and will incur in the coming months. 

Below are two public articles about Cathi so you may see a little of who she is, as well as links to information about DYSAUTONOMIA and EHLERS DANLOS SYNDROME

Thank you for your gift of any amount and for allowing God to use your generosity to help Cathi.
