Hi everyone, Tonia is having urgent cervical spinal surgery July 22nd to remove a tumor in her cervical spinal cord. This came on sudden and comes with a long post operation recovery. She will need help with the medical bills and most importantly, living expenses while she will be out of work for the next three months.

In her own words about how she is feeling "I found out recently that I have a tumor in my spinal cord. It seems that it needs immediate attention and I will be having a very major surgery this Friday to remove it. I am very scared. I'm very sad. I'm feeling pretty much everything and nothing at the same time. I just wanted to let everyone know what's happening because I love you. I have faith that I will be OK. I think the road ahead is long and hard so it's a good thing I am very strong. I'm not really sure what else to say other than this has shook me to my core and was an instant reminder of the things that matter. Tell the people in your life how you feel about them. Do the things you want to do. Don't stress over things that don't matter. Life is an amazing ride that doesn't make sense at all. I wouldn't change a thing."

If you can help out with anything at all, every bit helps, we much appreciate it. She doesn't need to think about medical bills or living expenses at this time. She needs to think about healing and recovery.
