<div>Dear friends, students, and dharma community,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Please consider lending your support in my battle with stage 4 ovarian cancer. I would love any help covering the myriad of medical costs, supporting my husband with the costs of hospice if treatment doesn't work, as well as helping me sustain the <strong>"Clearlight at The Yoga Space" teaching platform for the ongoing preservation of my teachings of dharma, yoga asana, vajra yoga, Niguma Yoga, and Clearlight Yoga Nidra.</strong>

<div>I turned 60 years old this past November, and all year I felt I was beginning to say goodbye. I kept telling myself it must just be a deep contemplation of impermanence and moving into a new chapter in life. But in fact, I had a hidden cancer that my intuitive body sensed, and I was in the process of letting go. I closed my beloved longtime Portland yoga studio, The Yoga Space. And I even let go of my lead teaching role with Robert Thurman in our Vajra Yoga School, feeling I must find my way back to a deep personal practice. I had the most blessed year of audiences with great spiritual masters: His Holiness the Dalai Lama, His Holiness Sakya Trichen, His Holiness Tai Situ Rinpoche, H.E. Ling Rinpoche, H.E. Kalu Rinpoche, and I went to see my longtime yoga teacher Richard Freeman, as I felt I needed to thank him for all he had shared before it was too late. Now it seems certain that I was being guided for these precious blessings before this journey home.

</div>

<div><strong>I very much believe in miracles, and even though my prognosis isn't good, I still have hope I will have more time here to share teachings and stories and beauty with you all.</strong> Your support will be felt, and I am so grateful you have been in my life to share in the beauty that is always present when we look closely.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Anything you can give would be so very much appreciated,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With love,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>
