Izzie Strong
Donation protected
Hi everyone -- Let's show some support for Heather Smith and her family .... she is one of the most selfless people we all know who would and will be helping her own family in every way possible. But she can't do it alone this time. It's time to show her how much we all care!
Any donation would be so helpful to this wonderful family -- if you feel more comfortable donating a gift card, please feel free to reach out!
A few words from Heather herself:
"My brother Matt and his wife, Kim live in Auburn, NY. He owns his own silkscreening/design company and many people in Hopkinton know about my brother as he created the Love for Leah shirts. Matt and Kim have 3 children, Matthew who is 10, Aiden who is 6 and Izzie who is 18 months. They are a very humble and private family and do so much for others and I'd love to do something for them given I am 5 hours away.
Izzie is a very happy girl who loves to just play with her dolls and her big brothers. She was diagnosed on December 30th with a rare Liver Cancer. What was thought to be a normal Sunday landed Izzie and her mom and dad in the cancer unit in Upstate NY (Syracuse). Izzie will endure 2 rounds of chemo before doctors can operate on her and remove the tumor. Once they are able to remove the tumor she will endure a few more rounds of chemo. The hospital that she is in is an hour from her home and she won't be able to see her brothers during all of these treatments and surgery. "
