Support Suzanne Bono as she fights Cancer

Dear friends, family and generous hearts,

We've come to ask for your support of Suzanne Denise Bono, our Bella Suzi. As you know Suzi was recently diagnosed with T3 Colon Cancer. She's currently under treatment in Italy, her 2nd home. Despite Italy having nationalized healthcare there are still costs involved. As with conventional insurance, and/or Medicare, she will have copays that will place Suzi under a tremendous financial burden. For instance, she needs 21 rounds of a chemo pill that costs 11,000 Euros each. Once her chemo is complete she will need to undergo surgery. At this time, it is unknown how soon she will be able to return to work. Suzi, has her own business in Italy with one employee - herself. So, if no one's working, there's no money coming in. All funds raised will go directly to Sue.

Most of us met Suzi back in our old Chicago neighborhood, or at Kelvyn Park High School in Chicago. Clients and recent friends may have met her in Italy. Regardless, we were all drawn to her sunny disposition, her positive outlook, sense of humor, and dazzling smile. Throughout her life, and even now facing cancer, her attitude does not waiver.

It is our hope that we can ease her financial distress and show our support and appreciation for all the beauty and travels she has so generously shared with us over the years taking all of us on her video and photo tours. All funds will be greatly appreciated.
