Nicole & Bab

Hello. Meet Nicole Hernandez and Babacar Ndiaye. They live in Atlanta and are partners, collaborators and mates. They are artists and creative thinkers. They have devoted themselves to finding and sharing beauty though film, photography, and music. Bab and Nicole are passionate about their friends, the cultivation of art in Atlanta and each other. And they need your help… 

Fifty days ago Bab, hardworking, tough and stoic, gave indications of something being terribly wrong with his health. He was admitted into Emory Medical on May 31st. This beautiful and brave man has suffered though countless MRIs & CT scans of his brain and spine, spinal taps, a bone marrow biopsy and brain biopsies and every other insanely painful procedure you can imagine. The doctors have been baffled and are basically working through the process of eliminating one terrible sounding diagnosis after another. Nicole has been staying by his side, sleeping in his room, and leaving long enough to keep her responsibilities at work and home, and then returning back to the hospital...suffering a broken heart every time she has to leave him.

The hope of all of us who know and love these amazing people is to raise enough funds to allow Nicole and Bab to keep their home and living expenses paid until Bab is well enough to go back to the nest he and Nicole created. Any support you can give would surely transform into hope and love for these wonderful people.



"As my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation -- either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. I decided to follow the latter course."  Martin Luther King Jr.

We dearly thank you,
Friends of Bab and Nicole
