Heather's Heart: A Call for Support

This is OUR Heather. Heather is a mother, wife, soon to be a 1st time grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend. Heather has always been a warrior. She has had so many obstacles, challenges, and odds stacked against her, and yet she always managed to prevail. I’ve always told Heather she was my own phoenix. I have never met someone so kindhearted, strong, independent, and determined, and who was able to handle it with so much admiration and grace like her. She always managed to rise above the flames and ashes to continue soaring. Heather was the type that never showed her struggles and/or faults. She was always the caretaker and provider, wearing her heart on her sleeve. She wore her pride high and never wanted anyone to see her lows. Anyone that has met her or has come to know her would know she does not like showing weakness. I don’t see this as a weakness. I see this as OUR turn to come together in helping and providing for her and her family. For our fallen loved one. Yes, our phoenix has fallen and she has fallen HARD. Do any of us want to let her go? ABSOLUTELY NOT… Do we wish she could continue? ABSOLUTELY... Sadly, it’s not what we all want. I know Heather has effectively impacted so many lives and touched so many different people that I feel we can come together as one and help her and her family during these difficult times. She has 6 kids, a husband, and a grandbaby on the way. She would help us if we were ever in need, even if it was her last dollar or putting herself in debt. She would always find ways to help. She loved so deeply and I know she is loved deeply. I have sat back and observed all week the unity and family she has created in her own world of bubble that I am beyond baffled. So come on, loved ones. Let’s give OUR phoenix some support and love. Let’s help her and her family in this difficult time of need. Thank you!!!
