Barbara’s Story

Site created on June 28, 2016

Welcome to our CaringBridge site.  We've created it to keep friends and family updated.  We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement during this time when it matters most.  Barbara has been feeling overwhelmed since she first discovered the signs she might have cancer.  All of the phone calls have been heart-warming, but also stressful, as she keeps reliving those awful days of discovery and uncertainty.  The best way to communicate with her is email and text.  She is feeling fine physically.  As that changes, we'll post any needs for those who would like to support us.
