Melisa's story.
im a 36 yr old mother of three wonderful children, River 16, Sunshine 14, and Stone 6. I have been battling Breast cancer for almost two tears and back in october after only 4 months remission we discovered that the cancer had spread to my brain. unfortunately although they removed the tumor from my brain it was already to far along to cure it. I now have cancer on my optic nerve which caused me to go blind in one eye and the cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal fluid which has caused the cancer to spread everywhere. The doctors are giving me only a few months and so i want to be able to give my children one last great memory of us together as a family doing something fun...to forget for a minute everything!! If you can help in any way we as a family would be eternally grateful!!! Thank you all for your kindness and prayers!

Kim's story.
We recently lost Kim to Ovarian cancer-the silent killer of women. Her battle had exceeded multiple years and almost ruined her wedding to her true love she calls "the other". Although they had insurance, insurance does not cover all the anti nausea medications she needed each month.
Project O, at this time, is to help out her family and others like her. It is actually her sisters that have formed this organization. Eventually they hope to grow into a larger organization to raise Ovarian Cancer Awareness, right now they have done multiple fundraisers and garage sales to help their sister get the medications and other medical costs she incurred and her husband will be paying for a long time to come without help.
