Recently Rickie has been diagnosed with cancer and will now live a much different life.  She will fight this thing with all her heart and has so many things she still wants to do.  Just a few weeks ago she had a  brain tumor removed and is now recovering in a nursing home near her family.  She has always loved life and been a light in so many of our lives.  After endless requests to help, from those who know my mom, it was suggested to me to start this campaign.   This fund is to directly pay unexpected medical bills, other cumulative bills, and hopefully begin a new and much different life.  My mom would not wish to have this fund set up because she is proud and private, however I know many of you would like to help her regardless.  Please only donate if you are able and this does not inconvenience you or your family, Rickie would not want that at all! If you would like to learn more about my mom's current situation or updates as to what is happening, please send me an email at [email redacted]

Best Regards,
