The Hammel Family

So many of us know the impact that a kind word, a helping hand, and a wonderful spirit can have on us and on the world. Add in the healing touch of an exceptional nurse practitioner, and you have Rikki Hammel. Rikki has lived life the right way: exercised, pursued a healthy diet, and has dedicated her life to not only her family, her community, but also her patients. Sometimes life is not fair; we are feeling a heavy burden to support Rikki as she has been recently diagnosed with an aggressive cancer in her brain, glioblastoma. This sudden diagnosis has left her unable to work and questioning not only her own future, but the future of her family, especially that of her girls. Help us support a family that has spent their life supporting so many: donate to tackle extensive medical bills and more importantly to secure the future of Kendra and Carissa to pursue their college degrees. Rikki would sacrifice everything to ensure her girls finish college. Let’s come together as a community to ensure this sweet family doesn’t have to worry about finances; they have too big a mountain to climb. Many prayers appreciated.
