Help Ally kick cancer's butt

Ally Meller (formerly Arcuri) married the love of her life, Jason in September at a beautiful private ceremony in Maui. Less than a month later their exciting new lives together, filled with so many hopes and dreams came to a screeching halt with the devastating diagnosis of stage 2 cervical cancer.  All those who know and love Ally know her to be an active, adventurous and creative young woman. She's a compassionate and loving friend to so many, and is both an inspiration and great support. She radiates light and spirit in all that she does. Whether teaching yoga or spin class, running marathons, writing, traveling to faraway places, adventuring with her husband and beloved dog, Brady, or spending time with loved ones, she does so with grace and passion. 30 years young, active, and otherwise healthy, Ally's diagnosis has come as quite a shock. She is scheduled to start chemoradiation immediately, a treatment that will trigger menopause within a couple of months and leave her infertile. This is a devastating reality for Ally and Jason, as they were planning to start a family soon.  Ally has had to drastically cut down on her work hours and it is unlikely that she will be able to maintain working during treatment. Aside from the loss of income and the treatment costs, there will be some travel expenses, all of which adds up to be a major financial burden for the couple.  We thank you for any contributions you may spare, and ask that you please share this fundraiser.
