A new baby+mom's cancer= help!
Donation protected
Rocky and Birgit Corey have had a rough few weeks. "Baby Ryan" (coined by big brother, Ben) arrived 5 weeks early and just under 5 pounds. He spent a few extra days in the hospital, but was able to come home soon after.
Unfortunately, that is where the happy news ends. Birgit, Ben and Ryan's mom, found out only a few days after Ryan's birth that she has cancer. And a LOT of it. The type that makes holding your new baby difficult. The kind that makes you fight. The kind you pray did not get passed along to your child.
Now both parents are out of work and the long journey to fight this monster is just beginning. We have food, family, and friends. What we need is financial assistance to keep them going. Cancer is NOT CHEAP.
These are the kind of people who love your children like their own. I know. My kids call Birgit their "other mom". They have been there for my children over the past 3 years consistently. Veteran, law enforcement officer, immigrant-turned-citizen. These are the people I am asking you to help. Please consider giving what you can. And if you can't give, SHARE!
