<div>After two years of dismissals by doctors and insurance, a large meningioma brain tumor was found. Although the tumor is benign, they were unable to remove all of it, causing concerns for its return. It was found on the lining of Renee’s brain, which then invaded her orbital region and grew into her sphenoid bone. She has suffered from headaches, vision loss, slurred speech, balance issues, and many more things. On Tuesday, September 2nd, she was scheduled for a biopsy to determine exactly what it was. Before she went in, 17 medical staff in her surgical room collectively decided it was better to remove it immediately with hopes that they removed the whole thing. She had a full brain craniotomy because of the placement of the tumor and trying to preserve the rest of her vision. They had to leave some of the tumor in her bone because it was too close to her optic nerve. In an attempt to remove the rest of the tumor, she will begin aggressive gamma knife radiation on Friday, September 19th. Since getting out of the hospital, she has needed around-the-clock care, including help bathing, feeding, walking, answering doctors' calls, and everyday life activities. She cannot be left alone. Her daughter Sawyer has started her senior year and is taking college classes. With her being at school and her sons working full-time, her daughter Montana and her boyfriend TJ have been staying with her for two weeks and many more incoming weeks to help her. This recovery time is expected to be up to a year, which means no driving and no work until cleared by doctors and brain and vision are fully healed.

<div>Renee is always the first to step in and help others, including helping friends, charity, and helping in the annual Dadios benefit to help a person in need in the community, along with 2 benefits she designed herself. Needless to say, now it's our turn to help our friend.

<div>She's always caring, positive, and funny. When she awoke from her surgery, the first thing she asked for was her kids, and the next question was if she missed the Buffalo Bills game ♥️

<div>Renee would like to thank her children, family; Tricia Heineman, Becky Dibble, and Shannon Godlove for doing all they've done with the rides to appointments and moral support. To the few people who were aware of what was going on because Renee wanted it on the down-low until we knew exactly what was going on and had dropped off food and gifts and showed her the love she deserves, it is very much appreciated!

<div><strong>Please consider making a donation to help get our beautiful Bills-loving friend back on her feet after this life-changing event.</strong> Her recovery could take as long as a year, so let's see this community come together as we have so many times before. We will keep people updated as we get new information.
