Help Mimi and the kids during chemo

Donation protected
Michelle (better known as "Mimi" to those closest to her) has been selfless her entire life. Not only is she the mother of four beautiful girls but she has consistently taken in children and animals who need love and support. But now, Michelle needs the love and support of her community.

For the last several years, Michelle has been battling cancer. For a while the cancer was in remission but a few months ago the cancer came back with a vengeance and, as cancer does, it's starting to make it impossible for her to keep up.

Michelle's ability to work has greatly diminished as she's constantly exhausted from the chemo. On top of that (as if that weren't enough!), she's taking care of her four kids and a few other unnecessarily challenging home life stressors. Added all together, Michelle feels like things are slipping out of her grasp. She needs our help.

When she originally asked me to set up this GoFundMe, Michelle only asked for $600 but I told her I thought we could at least double it. This woman has shown so many people kindness, love and compassion and it's time karma helped her get some of that love back. All funds will go directly to Michelle to help her feel like she can take care of herself amidst all this chaos. She is strong and she can beat the cancer and we can help!
