Julia's Fight

Hello all, 

After several months of not feeling well, losing weight and having difficulty eating, my dearest friend, Julia, recently received devastating news and was diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer.
Due to the size of the tumor, the doctors have recommended Julia undergo several months of chemotherapy in hopes to shrink the tumor and allow her to have surgery. Julia started her chemotherapy this week but she is also fighting this battle with a whole health approach. The cost of the nutritional supplements, vitamins, and other natural products is astronomical.

Julia is a 37 year old mom of 2 beautiful young girls (10 months and 2 years) and a wonderful wife to her husband, Peter.

Due to the side effects of chemo and her overall not feeling well, Julia has not been able to work. Prior to being diagnosed, she was working as a speech therapist with a local Early Intervention Program. Her husband, Peter, continues to work full time but their financial resources are running out due to the cost of medical expenses and child care.

We ask for your help in getting Julia and her family through this difficult time. We are hopeful that we can at least give her and her family one less thing to worry about. She is a fighter and we want to stand beside he, as she fights this battle.    

(My name is also Julia. I have created this account on behalf of Julia, Peter and their children).
