I've been in communication with Let There Be Mom and they've helped us find a family to sponsor for this Christmas! The Rogers family is who we'll be helping and I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do for them. Kelli Rogers is a 25 year old leukemia fighter, and 2 weeks ago she received a bone marrow transplant from her brother. She is currently being treated in Charleston, SC and will be there during most of her treatment and recovery/100 days of isolation.
Kelli is a single mom who has recently started living back at home with her parents due to her illness. Kelli has a 5 year old daughter, who is lucky enough to have two older playmates in her cousins 8 and 9 that are also living with Kelli's parents who are retired. Needless to say everyone is in a tough situation when throwing a battle with cancer into the mix. Kelli's mother is in Charleston helping take care of Kelli while her father is here in Greenville making sure the kids are taken care, getting them to school and taking care of their daily needs.
We're waiting on a some information back from Kelli and her family on how and where we can help the most. We know that there will be some basic needs that will need to be met for the kids as they are still young and growing. But we also know that Christmas is right around the corner and we want to help them have a memorable in a good way Christmas. I'll be listing specific things we will be needing as we get them. In the mean time if you are willing to contribute by means of money or gift cards that we can put towards helping the family for Christmas. I know that clothing will be needed for the kids and for Kelli and I'll list their sizes when I have them all.
