Support Shawna Chapman in her battle with ALS.

Donation protected
Dear friends and family my name is Wendy. I'm reaching out with a heavy heart and a sincere request for support.
My sister Shawna was diagnosed with upper limb onset Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis ( ALS or Lou Gerig disease). This diagnosis is turning her world upside down as she faces the challenges of already losing the use of her arms and hands and in the future the use of her legs and the ability to communicate with her voice.

My sister has always been a source of strength, kindness and inspiration for her family and friends. now, she needs our help more than ever. The costs of managing ALS- medical treatments, special equipment and home modifications- are mounting and we want to make sure Shawna can focus on her well-being without the stress of financial burdens.
We've set up this go fund me page with a goal of raising 10,000 to support Shawna through this difficult time. Your contributions will go directly to:
Medical expenses: covering treatments, therapies and medication the insurance doesn't fully cover.
Assistive devices: purchasing equipment to help Shawna with daily tasks and improve her quality of life.
Home adaptations: making necessary changes to her home to ensure it's safe and accessible.
Support services: funding care to provide Shawna with the assistance she needs.
Every donation, big or small, will make a meaningful impact. Your support will not only ease Shawnas financial worries but will also remind her that she's surrounded by a community that cares deeply about her.
Thank you for your generosity and for being a part of Shawna support system. Please share this page with others who might want to help.
With heartfelt thanks,
Wendy Hoffstrom
