Our dear friend Lisa Abella Rodriguez better known to so many as everybody’s friend in Blythe needs us now more than ever.

Lisa has recently been diagnosed with Stage 4 invasive squamous cell lung cancer, and she is facing a battle that no one should ever have to face alone.

If you know Lisa, you know that she has always been the person who shows up for everyone else. She has a heart bigger than most, and somehow, no matter what you were going through, Lisa can always make you laugh. She would stop by when you needed your spirits lifted, give you a ride when you needed one, check on you when you were having a hard day, or simply sit with you and make you feel like everything was going to be okay.

That’s just who Lisa is.

She has spent so much of her life giving her love, time, laughter, and support to the people around her. She has been there for so many of us when we needed someone and now, Lisa is the one who needs us.

Cancer is going to be a tough road, but if there’s one thing we know about Lisa, it’s that she is one tough woman. She has been through ups and downs before, and she has always found a way to keep going. But this time, she shouldn’t have to do it alone.

We are asking everyone who knows and loves Lisa to come together and help carry some of the weight she is facing. Donations will help with the financial challenges that come with cancer treatment and allow Lisa to focus her energy where it belongs: on fighting, healing, and getting through this one day at a time.

If you can donate, please know that every single dollar means something. If you can’t, sharing this fundraiser, sending her some love, or keeping her in your prayers means just as much.

Lisa has spent years being a light for other people.

Now it’s our turn to be her light.

Let’s surround her with the love, strength, and support she has given so freely to all of us.

We love you, Lisa. Keep fighting. We’ve got you. ❤️
