Help Adina Fight Non Hodgkins Lymphoma
Donation protected
If someone were to ask "Who is the strongest person you know?" My answer would be simple and said without hesitation. Adina Burrows. Adina raised her son, Austin, as a single loving mom. That alone, makes her one of the strongest people out there. But then on 1/12/13, her and a friend were T-Boned by a driver who ran a red light. While she was in the hospital for the accident the doctor's had an "incidental" finding of a peritoneal mass of which they took a biopsy. The mass turned out to be Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
In recent months, the medical bills both from the accident and the cancer treatments have been stacking up. Adina has been trying hard to balance all the bills, plus Austin's extra curricular activities, on top of the normal mortgage payments and typical costs of living; all on a single-parent income. We are raising money for an amazing woman who is far too kind to ever ask for it herself. Please feel free to donate what you can, every little bit helps!
There is much more to this story and Adina's journey in life, but she is the kind of person that doesn't flaunt their hardships, that doesn't make their problems known to everyone, that doesn't complain or whine about how unfair life has been to them. No, that's not Adina at all. In fact, she is one of the most optimistic, caring, and charitable people in this world. She is the kind of person that if she had no clothes left, and you asked her for a shirt, she'd give you the one off her back and then make a joke about how she looks better without clothes anyway. She will do what she can for anyone, and never ask for anything in return. But on top of it all, is this KILLER sense of humor and a constant song in her heart. You have no choice but to laugh until you cry when she gets on a roll. Her presence lights up a room. This attitude is what sets Adina apart for anyone else; this is what makes her an inspiration to so many.
