Profile Information
- Why I'm choosing to give:
- My father has a neurological condition which is depressing me. I need to focus on positives to help my mother with the situation and allow me to survive this experience. I love my dad dearly, and not being able to assist besides been there is very hard and emotionally difficult.
- What I'd most like to receive:
- Peace.
- How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
- Through Oprah.com
- About me:
- I am a 54 year old woman. The oldest of three siblings. I love my parents very much; but each day is difficult to deal with their sickness and constant dependence on me. I am not handling very well their getting older and dealing with the idea that they might not be here soon. I think that for the first time; I am actually facing my own mortality and is not easy - and I tend to get very depress.

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
