Tip of the Iceberg

A very dear friend of mine is going through a difficult time right now. Her brother is gravely ill, and she could use your help:

Our sister and their mom are both servers in the restaurant business.  Thankfully, both of their employers have given them the time off they need without their jobs being in jeopardy.  However, there is no paid time off and no vacation time in the restaurant business.  While they have always been able to just make ends meet, I am concerned about them not being able to spend time with Justin during his last days– either before death, or in the case that his heart miraculously recovers– a liver transplant.  If he does recover, he will absolutely be at the very top of the list because he is currently so very sick, so the transplant could happen very soon.

If, he does not make it, then I know that none of us have the means to pay for a funeral.  Either way, at this point, I’m looking for one of three things, or all three if you’re feeling generous:

• Can you help with even $5 for my fundraiser?
• Can you please pray, send light, send good juju, good energy, wrap him in healing, or whatever it is that you believe?
• Can you tell everyone you know about this story?

I realize that you don't know my friend or her brother (well, actually, a few of you do), but if you have $5 to spare, would you consider helping a deserving stranger? At a minimum, please take a few minutes to read and share her story. Thanks.
