Help Rissa Watkins


Though I generally save this blog for family and friends, today's blog is for a writer friend of mine, Rissa Watkins, who found herself fighting the same battle I have been winning:

What would you do if you discovered you had cancer and you had no way to pay your medical costs? Would you be able to come up with $500,000 in a year? The cost for cancer care is astronomical. I know. I have cancer too.

But I was lucky. Though it will sound sarcastic for me to say I was lucky, I really was, because I was so far below the poverty level, the government stepped forward to help me.



Rissa Watkins isn't so lucky. She was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia just this week and is in dire need of financial aid.

By reading her articles on Associated Content (link below), you will help her raise money to pay her medical bills.

Her battle has just begun. You can be one of the soldiers and one of the angels to help her win it.

Rissa's personal web site is located HERE.

Her articles are located HERE.

And information on how to help her in her battle to fight and win her cancer war is HERE.

Thank you for caring.
