My mom, Cindy Baum, had a stroke this past Monday. She underwent an emergency surgery that saved her life - an emergency surgery that was not free.

Our family is requesting help from those that love her and know her to ease the recovery process from such a serious event. As the impact of this is immediate, we are asking for help now.

With your help, my mom can recover from physical trauma, and fulfill medical recommendations. Our family can recover from lost work time,  medical bills, and emotional trauma.

Please help my family to recover from this. We need your help. Any support you can provide will remove some burden from my mother, who is hurting. If you know her like I do, she is one to never ask for help, but only to give it. This is the time that we remind her how much she is loved.
