<div>Dear loved ones of Tara,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There are people in this world who carry a certain kind of quiet light that allows them to be deeply present, truthful and heart centered. This is the essence of our sweet, brave, ever-caring T.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I met Tara through work, and within a short time she had become one of my closest friends. With her comes a container of safety, non judgement and tenderness that feels familial. Her warmth makes it possible to be yourself. Tara is a provider in the truest sense: someone who instinctively gives comfort and care to those around her. What a gift to know and love this special soul.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a therapist and lower school counselor at Greenwich Academy, Tara has spent her career holding space for people in their most vulnerable and complicated moments. She offers it effortlessly to everyone she knows and loves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Earlier this year, Tara was diagnosed with an extremely rare and aggressive malignant brain tumor. She is now being asked to receive and let her community support her in a way that does not come naturally to someone whose entire orientation toward the world is one of giving.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tara is currently being treated by an exceptional team at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Treatment has already begun. The road ahead is serious and long, and will ask a great deal of her — body, mind, and spirit. She faces it with hope, with courage, and with open eyes. This is a journey without a clear horizon.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The financial realities of this journey are significant — from treatments and care that insurance does not fully cover, to the necessary and difficult step of pulling back from her practice so healing can become her full focus.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the center of it all are her three boys — Cameron, Beckett, and Caleb — and the deep desire to keep their world feeling steady and supported. Alongside that are the quieter needs that accompany a long recovery; the things that allow a person to move through the world with confidence, autonomy, and a sense of self.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This page exists as an offering for those who love Tara and want to do something with the care they feel and don’t know where to direct it. If you have ever felt seen by Tara, if she has ever made you feel safe in a moment when safety felt far away, if you have ever left her presence feeling more like yourself than when you arrived — this is a place to honor that.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tara lives her life reminding people they are not alone, and that we are capable of moving through the unimaginable. Let us now remind her of the same.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love,
</div>
<div>On behalf of Tara, Michael, Cameron, Beckett, and Caleb
</div>

<div>Hello, my name is Peter Schmitt and I am reaching out as the President of the Greenwich Police Silver Shield Association.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>One of my officers, Detective 1st Grade Mike Rooney entered Yale New Haven hospital last week to have a tumor removed from his brain. Following the procedure Mike’s brain has unexpectedly endured a tremendous amount of swelling. He is currently in a coma and fighting the battle of his life. Mike is a warrior and will continue to fight.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mike is a former United States Marine and a 21 year veteran of the Greenwich Police Department. He is currently assigned the Special Victims Section advocating for and investigating crimes against our most vulnerable population. Additionally, he has been assigned to the FBI task force targeting online sexual predators and violent crimes against children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mike has dedicated his life to helping others and now he is in desperate need of our assistance. All proceeds will be used to support Mike’s wife and two young children
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

Please help Det. Mike Rooney’s family while he is in the ICU
