Send the Grandparents To Hawaii

This is my grandmother, Barbara. She is 65 years old, and the most amazing woman that has ever lived. At 16 she got married to my grandfather, Rudy, and a year later gave birth to her only child, my mother.

For years my grandmother worked and took care of her house, raising her daughter and being the best wife she could be. Whether it was working at the bank, circle K, or just being a housewife and mother, my grandmother alyways strived to be the best. And she was.

When her daughter had left the nest, her and my grandfather made so many plans for retirement, fantisizing about living out the golden year vacationing and have the fun they were not afforded as parents. But, life can be a curious thing. She ended up with myself and my older sister not long after my mother had left the nest.

For the next 30 years she raised my sisters and myself. This woman has been raising children for almost 50 years all together, she had been nothing but support and love. Her and my grandfather gave up everything, their retirement, their golden years, and Hawaii. Not only did she strive to take care of us, but she became our friends "grandma" and the kids that needed somewhere to go after school while their parents were at work.

Last year she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer that has spread to her lymph nodes.She is doing the Chemo, and I have moved in with them to help both ehr and my grandmother with my 17 year old sister, and both of them as well.  I want to make them happy, which is hard to do with someone is going through something like cancer. 

So my sisters and I decided we wanted to give her Hawaii, that she has been wanting for so long. I do not know anyone on this planet that deserves it more than my grandmother and grandfather.

This amount is to cover a hotel, the flights and a rental car, along with some spending money so they get there and can go and do all the things she wanted to do. If there is anything left over, then it will go to her medical bills and household bills as well. If we do not raise enough, then it will go to her medical bills and her home bills as well, to try and take some stress off her if we can not give her the stress releif of going to Hawaii.



I dont expect everyone to give, even if you don't just keep her in your prayers for me.  We need all that we can get. Thank you!
