Thank you for all your thoughtful comments earlier today re my friend Dina. A couple of people asked if there was a Paypal account set up for her.
There is. God bless you for asking and thank you for your support.
Please see www.justfaceit.org
All proceeds will benefit Dina and her family in her fight against colon cancer.
In case you missed my diary about Dina, below is a short version of who she is & what's going on.
Dina Teply is a good friend of mine who was widowed 7 years ago and left with three young kids to raise by herself on only her husband's Social Security check (he didn't have life insurance).
Two months ago Dina was diagnosed with Stage IV metastatic colon cancer. Her kids, now 14, 12, and 9, know that their mom has cancer but they don't know that the drs. have given her a worst-case scenario of 7-9 months.
A fund has been set up to help Dina in her fight against colon cancer...and also to leave her kids with some money for a college education and such after she's gone.
