Yeah, that sucks. Alot.
I know this isn't a BST.... but I feel weird posting this in the main forum since I'm asking for monetary help. So.....
I've known Michelle since we were kids. This girl is like a sister to me. I love her more than my actual sister.
Anyways, she moved in while I was in Israel, in September. In early October, she invited me out to the back porch and told me that she was diagnosed with Stage 1 Cancer. They caught it early, it hasn't spread, it's localized... all "good" news.
She is having Surgery on December 2, and hopefully everything will all be ok after that. It's supposed to be a relatively easy process.
Michelle loves flowers. They bring her joy. They brighten her day. They will help her recovery. Please help me fill her room with so many flowers! I've created a GoFundMe, and I would really very much appreciate your help. Thank you.

Very nice of you to do. Hope she is in good spirits and you can keep it going.
Thank you for your encouragement and support. She is doing well so far.... and I hope we can raise her spirits after her surgery. Thanks.
It sounds like Michelle is in good hands. Catching it early is huge. My brother was diagnosed with stage 4 about 10 years ago. He went into remission later and has been cancer free since. No reason to expect less with Michelle’s case. Prayers and support go out to both, her as the patient and you as the devoted friend.

I can't even begin to describe how much your support means to us. Thank you so much!
Michelle's surgery was today. I got a lot of flowers yesterday, arranged them all, etc. Her sister helped put them all in her room (she's staying at her parents house for the first week or two) because I had to work today.
Michelle's doctor said the surgery went very smoothly, no evident signs of cancer remaining. She just got home and saw the flowers, and said she could feel the love and support. To everyone who helped.... a huge thank you, from me, from her, from all of our family.
There's a bit of a road left with the recovery, but she's almost there.
She loves sunflowers, but tulips are her favorite. I was really worried... because this is not the time of year for either of those. But I was able to find them, and she absolutely loved them.
Again, thank you all.
