Hi, my name is Kristen, and two weeks ago my sister Tammy’s life was turned upside down when she suffered a heart attack. She’s now focused on healing and following her doctor’s orders, but it means she can’t work for at least the next month.

The financial impact has been huge. Tammy is facing a full month without income, along with the added costs of life-saving medications she’ll need to take for the next year. She’s doing everything she can to stay positive and recover, but the stress of how to keep the bills paid is weighing heavily on her.

I’m starting this GoFundMe to help cover:

• This month’s rent and household bills

• A year’s worth of her prescribed medications

• Basic living expenses while she regains her strength

We’re hoping to raise $7,500 to get Tammy through this difficult time without the added worry of losing her home or going without the medicine she needs to stay healthy and minimize the risk of a second heart attack.

Tammy is someone who has always shown up for her friends and family, and right now, she needs us to show up for her. If you can give, no matter the amount, it will make a real difference. And if you can’t donate, sharing this page means the world.

Thank you for helping Tammy focus on her recovery and giving her the peace of mind she deserves.
