Caregiver Support for Lisa O'Brien

Donation protected

Lisa O’Brien of Woodland Hills, California was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2012. While in the hospital after the birth of her son Luke, she suffered a grand mal seizure and learned that she had a cancerous brain tumor. Since then she has had numerous surgeries, radiation treatments, and rounds of chemotherapy.

While she is currently cancer free, she still faces a number of life threatening health challenges.  After some debilitating setbacks in 2015, we're grateful she's home and working hard on rehabilitation with some of the best practitioners in the country.  While she has an excellent support structure of family and friends, she still relies on professional caregivers for even the most basic daily tasks. With this comes extraordinary costs. In fact,  Lisa's caregiving costs outweigh the family's income by nearly $10,000 each month. 

That said, the money raised from this campaign will support the caregiving services that Lisa depends on. It will also provide the family a much needed lifeline and the ability to provide for their two children, Jack and Luke. 

Let’s help Lisa and her family reach this goal and ensure her progress towards a healthy life.
