Treatment for Tish!
Donation protected
To all who may read this:
Tish Vine is my aunt. She is an amazing 50 year-old woman- full of life, love, and personality. She brings a smile to anyone near her. She is a wife, and mother to two wonderful kids.
In the beginning of November, Tish was experiencing some bizarre symptoms that led her to the hospital. After some tests, a mass was discovered in the frontal lobe of her brain. A biopsy was done and Tish has since been diagnosed with an oligodendroglimoa. A large portion of the tumor has been removed, but complete removal was not possible. As a result, Tish will have to undergo radiation and chemotherapy in the coming weeks and months.
As you can imagine, this has been a shock to her family. Not only is it impossible to be emotionally prepared for a diagnosis such as this, it also brings with it many unforseen expenses. Unfortunately, even with health insurance, the treatment costs for Tish will be astronomical. Very few people in her position would be prepared to take on these expenses.
Any monies raised will go to aid the Vine family in offsetting the burden of insurance deductibles, out-of-pocket expenses, co-pays, travel exepenses, day-to-day expenses arising from loss of income, etc.
I am hoping that in the spirit of the holiday season, you may find yourself in a position to help Tish out on a daunting journey that she has faced, and will continue to face with the most positive outlook, in any way that you can. Every dollar would make a difference to her and her family. If you are unable to donate, would you please keep this beatiful family in your prayers?
I know that between all of us, we can truly ease this burden on the Vines. And for that, they would be forever grateful.
