Natalie Can't Use Her Hands to Work

Donation protected
If you have made it to this page, you already love Natalie or know someone who does. Natalie is one of the most beautiful, kind, hard-working and loving people you will ever know and she needs our help though she would never ask. Natalie is a gleaming Grandmother of a precious 3 year old little girl, an adoring mother of two beautiful children, a caring daughter, a supporter of several non-profit organizations, a friend to anybody she meets, and my amazing friend for 15 years. Natalie loves gardening, cooking, reading, keeping up with her granddaughter, spending time with her family, being an advocate for The Indiana Forest Alliance, an active member of The Columbus Food Co-op, and serving her clients she has known for decades.

Natalie has been a stylist for nearly 40 years. She is an educator and senior associate for John Paul Mitchell Systems and has enjoyed being a color educator for 21 years.  Natalie has made a lifetime career of making people feel beautiful on the inside and the outside with an emphasis on continued education in every aspect of her life. 

Three days ago, Natalie took a hard fall and found herself in the emergency room with both of her wrists broken. Today she is back home but both of her arms are in full hard casts with only the tips of her fingers peeking out.  She has no use of either hand because of this sudden accident and isn't expected to regain use for at least two months.  

This is a difficult time for Natalie because she is self-employed and therefore does not have insurance covering her income loss while she is unable to work. Her full time job as a stylist at Vivian Lou requires use of both of her hands on a daily basis and without the use of her hands, she has no income. She is currently not receiving any financial help for this time she is unable to serve her clients while she is recovering. She would never ask for it but Natalie really needs our help.  She should be focusing on her recovery and receiving the medical attention she requires without feeling the burden of living expenses she cannot resolve. 

Let's join together and contribute as much as we can to help Natalie while she is without an income. I know when she learns what we are doing here, she will be extremely grateful for each and every one of you. Most of all she will be relieved to know that she can recover properly without the worry of not making ends meet. 

Thank you and please help spread this news about Natalie.
