Help Ed Birmingham fight cancer!

Donation protected
Hi there.  We are raising money for Ed Birmingham, who is my brother in-law and who is very special to our family. Some of you may know Ed through my sister Shari, some of you grew up with him in Dormont, and many of you know him as part owner of the fabulous Ivy Inn. 

Ed had previously been diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer.  He has been undergoing treatment for some time now. 

Recently, Ed has started treatment out in Arizona. It is a specialized treatment which incorporates other unique treatments along with chemotherapy. 

Ed and Shari are paying out of pocket for these treatments, as they are not covered by insurance, and we are very hopeful they will give Ed additional time with our family. 

We are asking for any donations you can make to help with the unexpected costs, which include traveling weekly from Las Vegas (where they are staying with his sister) to Scottsdale, Arizona, where they need to stay every Monday through Friday during his treatments. As a resort area, it turns out that Scottsdale can be a little pricy for hotels and then the meals on top of that. 

Ed and Shari have always been generous in helping others, so we would greatly appreciate any help you can offer at this time to help make things a little easier on them.
