Help for Tanya to get through all cancer brings
Donation protected
Hi! Im Skye Balsimo. Tanya Gardner was my top 3 best friends in high school..her family took me in when I needed them. Tanya was always there for me. Tanya and I had a shit ton of fun! So many funny memories...lol...too many to choose! We all grew up,had kids, got married and lost touch but Tanya is a friend you can lose touch but 10 yrs later pick up where you left off! Shes so cool like that! Through my own cancer struggle I had no idea she was diagnosed in fall/winter w non hodkins lymphoma. Shes never been one to ask for help. Totally unlike me! Ha! Im like hey everyone HELP!!!!! Tanya is easy going.. loves to love and loves feeling loved. Dont we all? I want her to not work but she must and shes so affected by chemo and the meds that are hard to keep up with. Aside insane expense youre too sick to drive 7 miles to get your meds. I completely understand that.. shes not great letting others know " hey, im hurting bad.. someone step in" Well here I am Tanya! As well as your cousin Kerry cause once he heard he asked if he could be in Kerry has long ago memories as cousins and wants to step in and help.out. I thought that was so cool..Thats when I knew yup.. gofundme is happening! Many of us know Tanya and remember the best times of life with her. She doesnt try to be funny but shes so damn accurately and on point funny.. not even knowing shes hilarious! Kerry Garder and I cant imagine our friend, family member suffering in any way. Theres cancer but its the before the treatment, during and after that changes you and takes every dime you have. She wont admit it but shes scared. Just like me. I get it and im sure so many of you get it. Whenever i donate or put out good in the world its like boomarang karma for me. For me its simple.. donate $1, 5$ $20...everything is appreciated and when you put that kind energy out there its a payback × 4 in your karma bank and going to bed at night knowing you helped a beautiful soul sleep better. Kerry and myself appreciate all donations. Dont think you cant cause you can only afford a dollar! Those dollars add up. She is on venmo so that route is pretty easy.. i have her address if anyone wants to message me or Kerry to send her things you'd need if places were switched. We've all unfortunately been touched by cancer #wowdoescancersuck but if you havent had it there are fears upon fears us cancer patients keep to.ourselves but being good on gas, groceries, utilities, meds, fast food thats easy ect...all that got me through 1st year and i can remember every person that went out their way. Its not taken lightly with a cancer patient. Please help my friend and shes probably been a friend or still is to a lot of you. Lets raise Tanya's spirits. Her cousin Kerry and I couldnt be more moved and appreciative.
