Melissa and her family need your help

Hi, our names are Mitchell and Stan and we are Melissa's cousins. We are fundraising for Melissa's health and her family's future. Nine months ago Melissa, a 38 year old healthy fun loving mother of 2, was unexpectedly diagnosed with a uterine sarcoma. This last Thursday, irrespective of her determination and her will to live, the cancer tragically took Melissa's life. Her husband Ian had to leave his typical day job to fight this cancer and to raise their children. Melissa and Ian have two daughters ages 7 and 3, Mia and Ava, who have fought alongside. As bills pile up we are reaching out to our friends to financially assist in this horrifying process. The stress of a future life without a mother and a wife and to be able to raise their two children should be the only thing that Ian needs to worry about.

Even if you do not know Melissa, we hope that you can sympathize with this situation and share this story with whomever else you feel can relate to their hardship. We as a community appreciate any support that you can offer.
