Stroke of luck... 2020

Donation protected
It was a bipartisan occurrence on election day (Cheryl's humor).  Cheryl Griffin Kingdeski was able to get her vote in only to suffer a devastating stroke later that day.  After being hospitalized she was then moved to in patient rehabilitation.  She is at home now doing physical therapy a few times a week but she is still confined to a wheelchair and remains paralyzed on one side.  It's going to take months of hard work to get back on her feet.  Her medical bills are mounting and I'm asking for your help by making a donation in any amount that you can give.  It's been a difficult year for everyone but whatever you can give would be a huge help. 

You may know Cheryl from Eastwood, Blessed Sacrament or her former company, Room Service, where she amazed clients with her beautiful faux painting creations.  Always putting others' needs before her own, Cheryl has been caring for her husband John who, suffering from pulmonary fibrosis, has been on oxygen 24/7.  Now John will be the primary caregiver which makes their situation even more challenging and I know the family will appreciate anything you can do to help.

Despite all that she and John are going through, Cheryl has managed to maintain her sense of humor.  She's a huge Rolling Stones fan and wants everyone to know that the Stones are aware and Mick is at the helm.  Please consider donating and helping Cheryl out of her wheelchair ("Steel Wheels") so she can dance the Harlem Shuffle again very soon.

Thank you, everyone, from the bottom of my heart!
