Shira’s Cancoir: The Sequel

Anyone who knows my sister Shira, knows she is not one to ask for help. Since she

was a little kid, all she wanted was to be a “big girl” (and Italian) and do things herself.

She has even been self-employed most of her adult life. Doing things on her own is

something she has always been very proud of.

So, when the diagnosis of breast cancer

came, and Chemo was in her future, Shira

realized this was first thing she could not

do all by herself. But where to start, and

how to ask for help?

This is new territory, and it is not a comfortable feeling. So, to ease that for Shira, we, her family, want to get this started for her. Yes, Shira will be okay, but she is also going to go through a year of hell to get there.

She is embarking on a year of asking for

help for the very first time.

Yet, Shira’s got a much bigger village than

even she realizes…and her village is located far and wide, all around the world.

We know you, her village, will want to help, and some will feel frustrated that you are

too far away to come for a hug or lend a

hand.

We also know that since Shira’s

self-employment will be interrupted during this cancer journey there is an easy and

meaningful way for everyone in Shira’s village to help her, no matter where you are

located.

As we all know, insurance will only get us

so far, and we’re finding out daily how many things they don’t cover. Your gift, for any amount, towards Shira’s cancer “cameo

appearance” is so very appreciated.
