Dear Friends and Family, (and to those of you that we do not know who received this through a share)
We are so grateful and happy to have just celebrated Holly's 47th birthday in June, but we have a not so happy update regarding her health. As many of you know, Holly has been fighting stage 4 metastatic colon cancer since she was diagnosed in December of 2018.
There have been many victories and mostly pain free years, until about 6 months ago. Unfortunately, the cancer has recently spread to her peritoneal cavity and has been causing terrible pain and ascites which is fluid buildup in the abdomen. She has currently exhausted all methods of chemotherapy, so has been on daily radiation treatments which make her feel very sick and extremely tired.
Her husband Keith has become her primary caregiver and has been unable to work. He also cares for their two children, Elliana who is 12, and Elijah who is only 6 years old.
The funds raised will go to medication costs and medical costs (she is on very strong pain medication that is not being covered by insurance), lost wages, food, and moving expenses as they downsize to a smaller, more manageable apartment.
We are so grateful to those who have donated in the past, and we are reaching out again for your kindness, generosity, and support. Please give in any amount to help continue to ease this lovely family's suffering. Thank you for your continued prayers. We will continue to pray for a full recovery and healing.
God Bless-
Heather Edwards (Holly's sister)
