Help Shelly Ridenour Barrett with Medical Cost

Donation protected


Friends, family and community it’s not easy to break this news, nor come to you for help. Not many of us can say they have been best friends with someone as long as I have with Shelly Ridenour. We have been a part of each other’s family since we were 12 years old. We have experienced many first together through life. However, this first we could definitely have done without! Shelly was recently diagnosed this week with Colon Cancer. She underwent a very long invasive surgery this week to remove the tumor. Unfortunately, we just learned she will now have to undergo another surgery, and then start chemotherapy. Shelly has always been the most independent, hard working woman I have ever met. As a single mother, she has worked so very hard to provide an amazing life for her little boy. She also has been the type of person that has always done whatever she possibly could for anyone in need. Shelly’s going to be out of work for awhile, and the hospital bills are going to keep coming, along with the house bills, the car payment, etc. I have set up a this GoFund me account to help her with her expenses, so she has one less thing to have to worry about! All proceeds go directly to Shelly!
If you can give please do so, if not that’s ok! However please share this with others and keep my best friend in your thoughts and prayers! She has a tough road ahead of her, but if anyone can do it -Shelly can and will!
I love you Shelly!
