Hi everyone,

Many know my sister, Dana Harper, as vibrant, independent, and a hard worker. She is a single woman and self-employed, meaning she relies solely on her own work for income and support. Recently, that independence has been jeopardized. Dana has been bravely battling a severe infection, and her fight is made even more challenging due to complications from diabetes. What began as a local infection has traveled to her bone, and her body is struggling to recover, requiring specialized intensive medical attention and treatment. Recently she was hospitalized due to the infection. This unforeseen health crisis has brought an overwhelming financial burden to her and her family. As a self-employed individual, Dana's income has come to an abrupt halt, leaving her without the financial means to cover the growing medical bills, medications and even basic living expenses. The costs include hospital stay, special wound care, doctor bills and loss of wages. The costs that are accumulating are simply more than she can manage.

Times are tough for many. Any support offered is appreciated, whether it's a donation, a share on social media, or a thoughtful message of encouragement. Kindness, however big or small will make a big difference.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read Dana's story and for being a part her journey to recovery. Updates on her progress will be posted so stay tuned.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Wendy and Dana's family
