Margaret's Sub-Teacher: $92 a day
Donation protected
As most of you are aware, Margaret Worrell has just undergone a craniotomy to remove a benign brain tumor located behind her left eye. While surgery went very well and the surgeon was pleased with the procedure, Margaret has many, many days of recovery ahead.
In addition to being a mom to Owen (6) and Maggie (2), Margaret is a wife, co-owner of Vintage Vibe Boutique and Pre-K school teacher for Alberta Elementary School. While we cannot soothe the heart ache that Margaret will experience from being away from her new class of students, we can assist in donating money toward her "sick days".
In the state of Alabama, teachers are required to provide "sick days" for each day that they are out of work. Teacher friends in the state of Alabama are encouraged to donate some of their "sick days" to Margaret's account. For others that would like to assist, you can donate here and this money will be used to cover Margaret's substitute teacher ($92 a day) and other medical expenses.
Why the odd number of $6441? For every day that Margaret does not have a "sick day" to cover her days out of work, she is expected to pay for her substitute teacher out of pocket. That's about $85 per day. The extra $7 is covering the fees that this site takes to keep it operating and donations legal. $6441 will provide Margaret with 70 DAYS OF LEAVE! We have no way of knowing how long Margaret will need to heal but this will be a great start in providing a long recovery.
All nominations are greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for gathering around this family and showing your support and love to someone who has touched each of our lives in one way or another, at one time or another, in our journey through this world.
