support Lori through her surgery

One of our nearest and dearest friends Lori Marchant is going to have surgery next week. The surgery she is having is life changing in many ways and the recovery time is considerable.
 Lori has been dealing with colitis/ Crohns since she was a little girl. She has been battling hard against this disease and staying strong for her boys, but her doctors and body have told her it's time for a rest .
  Here is where we as her friends come in. She has her family as an excellent support system to help with the boys while healing but we would like to take away any financial strain this will cause her. She will be off work for quite a few months. The expenses she will incur are also considerable. The extra expenses on top of being a single mom on medical EI will include new clothing to fit comfortably , supplements, A strict diet, very expensive medical supplies for at home and away from home that are only partially covered by Medical.

   Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Please share within your circle of friends and community. Thank you.
