Support for Christine

Donation protected

The definition of a best friend is a person who you value above other friends in your life, someone you have fun with, someone you trust and someone in whom you confide. The first person you call when you get good or bad news.

For most that one person quickly comes to mind along with an immediate smile. For me, it's my childhood friend, Christine Barretta. Chrissy comes to mind for so many since she is the most kind-hearted, loving person. The heartbreaking news of her recent stage four lung cancer diagnosis is unbearable for all that love her but luckily medication is improving her quality of life. Like many during this pandemic, Christine is struggling to pay medical bills which include costly medications. 

There are so many qualities that make Chrissy so special - her deep love for family which has always included her pets and a natural talent for painting (e.g., sunflowers) and playing the piano. She has the most infectious laugh, positive attitude and determined-spirit. 

Please show Chrissy just how much she is loved by donating what you're able to this holiday season. The goal is to gift these funds on her 59th birthday, December 24th. Many thanks in advance for considering :)
