<div>Hi, my name is Chelsea and I'm fundraising for my dear friend and neighbor, Marnie-Lynn Common.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our beautiful friend Marnie has received the kind of news no one is ever prepared for. After bravely fighting melanoma, she’s been told that the cancer has spread to her brain. Doctors have given her a prognosis of just six months to live.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As if that weren’t enough heartbreak for one week, Marnie also lost her job — leaving her and her husband Tom facing not only an unimaginable emotional battle, but serious financial strain as well. Tom has decided to take time off work to be by her side, to make every day count, and to cherish the time they have together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anyone who knows Marnie knows how deeply she cares for others. She’s the first to show up when someone needs a hand, a laugh, or a shoulder to cry on. She’s strong, loving, and full of light — and now she needs our help to make this time as peaceful and meaningful as possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This GoFundMe has been created to help ease the heavy burdens they’re facing. Donations will go toward:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Medical and care costs</strong> not covered by insurance
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Living expenses</strong> while Tom takes time off work
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Comfort and experiences</strong> that will allow Marnie and Tom to focus on love, laughter, and moments together instead of financial stress
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, every share, and every message of support means the world. Your kindness will help give Marnie and Tom the gift of time — to be together, surrounded by love and without worry.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping them hold on to hope, comfort, and peace during this incredibly difficult chapter.
</div>
