Kim Turnquist needs our help! She has leukemia.

3/26/2024

As many of you know Kim has been fighting this battle since Sept. She has had so many setbacks. And today is one of them. She is back in ICU with trouble breathing. She is tired and needs many prayers and help. She is needing help with everything medical bills, house bills, car repairs.

No matter what you can donate will help Kim. We did an amazing fundraiser for her in Feb. And it was a blessing and very helpful. But as you all know it only goes so far for medical bills and house bills. And we are planning another fundraiser in a month or two when weather breaks stay tuned. We are asking for any donations to take the stress off her and let her keep on fighting for her life!

I appreciate what everyone has done and is doing! Big Thank you from Kim and her family.

Hi, my name is Debbie LaFountain/Raymo I am doing this fundraising for my sweet beautiful friend Kim Niswender/Turnquist. She has two beautiful daughters Jennifer and Madison and her angel Julia. As many of you know this girl has been through hell since her daughter Julia was murder at Eastern. Kim is a fighter and the most sweet and caring person you would ever meet. She would do anything for anyone! Her mission in life is to solve her daughters murder case. Well today she received the WORSE news that she has leukemia!

Now she has to fight for her life!

They are shipping her to Cleveland Clinic tonight or tomorrow for chemo and radiation for at least a month. We are asking for a bunch of powerful prayers and any donations to help her with bills and to take the finance burden off her plate so she can give it her all to fight and kiss this in the butt!!! Any amount helps so I ask if you are able to please help and also we need all the prayers!

Thank you and I appreciate it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
