After 20 years cancer-free, down a leg but still kickin’ strong, my dear friend Sherene Ricci, aka Lefty, has been diagnosed with cancer, again. This time, it's of that pesky inflammatory-breast-variety. I’m creating this fund to help Sherene with her medical bills and daily life as she continues to undergo the gamut of cancer treatments over the next year. Anything you can pitch in to help Sherene recover physically and financially is immensely appreciated. I know I’m not the only one who has had the amazing luck to know Sherene as a friend, adventure buddy, emotional support guru, voice of reason, and a person to laugh so hard you end up crying with. Please consider donating if you have the means.

We love you to the far reaches of the universe and back, Sherener!
