Help Nicole Beat Cancer

On May 2, 2018 Nicole was rushed to the hospital after experiencing several seizures. Doctors immediately performed an MRI scan and discovered a tennis-ball-sized mass on the right side of her brain. Once the mass was removed and tested Nicole was diagnosed with Grade IV Glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer. After Nicole heals from surgery she will start a 6 week course of chemotherapy and radiation to make sure the mass does not return and to target a few other spots that were found on the left side of her brain.

Nicole is someone who overflows with life force, either on stage, in front of the camera, at her desk, or as a dedicated partner to Cheiku and their dog Coltrane. She approaches challenges with her whole heart, brimming with determination. I know how she approaches tackling this horrible disease will be no different.

Please consider contributing to help Nicole beat this life threatening illness. Though she may be mighty, all of the help and support you are able to provide will be integral to her success. 

This horrible event has quite literally come from out of the blue, making it all the more frightening and upsetting, but with your help we can work to make it easier for Nicole and her family to cope. Thank you so much for your generous contributions, whatever form they may take.
