Helping Fran

I have been diagnosed with metistatic breast cancer for the third time in 15 years.  This time it has had a debilitating effect.  I have lost my hair, but the biggest issue is the lack of energy and other painful side effects because of the chemotherapy infusions and drugs to stop the cancer which is now located in my lymph nodes. 

I have been a long term volunteer at "Pageant of the Masters". Working in one of two makeup teams. I hope to regain enough strength to be there again this coming summer. My friends from the Pageant have been very supportive and are cheering me on.

My husband was diagnosed with several stokes since the beginning of year.  Unfortunately, we have fallen behind on our mortgage payments and we are unable to work to make up for the shortage.

Asking for help like this is the hardest thing I've ever done...  in fact, I had to be persuaded to do it.
Hopefully, it will be the last time I ask for help. To those of you who are able to help, please accept our most heart felt thanks.
