Hi everyone, my name is Tiffani Cronin, and I am writing with a heavy heart to ask for your support. Life took an unexpected turn two weeks ago, when my mother, Sherry DiMartino was diagnosed with Interstitial Lung Disease after a sudden trip to the ER for difficulty breathing.

The past few weeks have been a blur of tests, treatments, and immense emotional strain. Unfortunately, she was not able to adequately breathe on her own and they had to place her on a ventilator. The doctors are telling us that she will need to stay in the hospital for a long length of time- there is no end date right now as we wait to see if the medicines will work. While I am incredibly grateful for the support of my family and friends, the medical expenses have begun to mount quickly. My mom is unable to work due to her current condition.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me and my family. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing my story with your network. Your support is not just financial; it will give my family the peace of mind to focus on my moms recovery.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness and compassion.
