Hi my name is Charlene and I have started this fundraiser for my dearest friend Michelle Hartwell-Whelchel. Her and her husband live off the grid in Montana and are currently dealing with traveling to Seattle to get Michelle to doctor's appointments. She needs specialized doctors which are not available in the remote area. She has a major operation coming up on October 13 and they will need to stay for several days while Michelle goes though surgery and recovers enough to travel. Michelle is not one to ask for help and I know this is going to be a big hardship on them. They need to be able to use their resources they need to get through the harsh Montana winter. Anything you can do to help is greatly appreciated. Please also keep Michelle in your prayers.
