Dear Friends,

Gina's story is a difficult one to tell. It's lengthy but still lacks so many critical details. What we do know is that an extremely rare disease/illness has invaded her body and attacked her brain. In seven short but very long weeks we have watched this invasion take away the most basic of her body's functions. She's non-verbal, lost her fine motor skills as well as gross motor skills. This means no walking, no talking and she is unable to complete tasks as simple as feeding herself. It might be easier for me to say she is fighting for her life. She desperately needs us to fight with her and for her!

If you've had the privilege of meeting the precious lady we are speaking of, you know she's one of a kind. There's never been a heart as big as Gina's. She's kind to the depths of her soul, her love for others is genuine and sincere. She's the kind of generous that means she will take care of others before herself. Now, is the time we come together as one and take care of her.

We have no idea what we are facing but do know she has not worked for seven weeks. She can't work now, and with sad hearts don't know when or if she will be able to return to her normal life. That, along with her medical needs means she needs financial support. We humbly ask that if you can or feel lead to donate, please do. Every penny will be greatly appreciated and help Gina fight this battle.

With much gratitude,

Gina's family
