The Sabra Gallagher Memorial Fund

Donation protected

On the evening of January 31, 2017, my good friend, also a wife, and mother Sabra Gallagher was taken from us too soon.  In November, this beloved 27 year elementary school teacher began having memory and dexterity problems.  She began confiding to peers and her childhood sweetheart husband Mark that she thought was having focus problems related to lack of sleep.  Instead, she went from being suspected of having a mild stroke to being diagnosed with a rare and brutal brain disease known as Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease (CJD).  It affects literally one person in every million.  This beautiful woman went from completely unaffected to losing her life in just over two months.  The speed with which this progressed has been overwhelming to her family, friends, and school community.  Please consider donating to help her husband deal with lost wages, medical, funeral, and unplanned expenses.
