I have a friend. A dear friend named Sarah. Sarah is a mother to two beautiful children, a wife to an amazing man, a daughter, a sister, and a friend to everyone she meets. She is beautiful, she is smart, and she is also quite hilarious.
Sarah was recently diagnosed with PSC (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis), a very rare and progressive liver disease. She is taking this diagnosis head on, and is doing everything she can to raise money and awareness. A team is currently forming, in her name, to walk in the annual Liver Life Walk to support the American Liver Foundation. I have joined the team and am trying to reach a goal of raising $250 for the American Liver Foundation by September 26th! I need your help!!
"My name is Sarah Gillette and I was recently diagnosed with PSC, a rare liver disease that is progressive and currently has no cure. Eventually I will need a liver transplant. As you can imagine, this news rocked my simple life. I have two small children and a wonderful husband, I want to be there to see them all get wrinkles. The reason I am doing this walk it to raise awareness and money. The world of medicine can change dramatically in 10 years...about the time I may need a liver. Your donations can make a difference in the goal to find a cure. Thanks a whole bunch to my friends, family, and complete strangers for making donations. I have never felt so much support and love in such a sad time. Thank you."
