Hello, my dear friends. Many of you already know what happened, but following a recent medical emergency, in which a tumor was removed from my stomach, I am currently home from the hospital in need of funds to keep up on my medical bills and additional expenses, until I return to work. My 26 year old son lives with me and is also helping with my care, but he is busy with school and my lack of income only adds to our stress level, which is not needed right now. In the meantime, I am also supplementing additional funds to cover expenses for my 83 year old dad, as he is currently in a local board & care. While my intent is to return to teaching as soon as possible, my financial request will allow us to keep our heads above water, without the additional stress of needing money to get us back on our feet and get us through all of this. Any amount is very much appreciated and no amount is too large or too small. I am just so grateful for having you in my life. Thank you for contributing. God bless you always! Love, Charlotte :)
