❤️ A Special Request for Carolyne — A Precious Life Worth Fighting For ❤️
Today, I’m reaching out with a special request for someone who has held a place in our hearts for many years.
Keith and I have sponsored one of Carolyne’s children through an organization for years, so our connection to her family began long before her cancer journey. Sometimes God places people in our lives without us ever knowing just how deeply our paths will become intertwined.
Carolyne is now preparing for the next phase of her cancer treatment — radiation therapy. This will require her to relocate to either Nairobi or Eldoret, Kenya, for a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks.
Unfortunately, unlike her chemotherapy, radiation treatments will not be covered by SHA (Kenya’s health insurance program). We are still working to determine the total cost of her care.
We are so thankful for Dr. Muchiri, who has become such a wonderful friend and advocate for these precious souls. He is currently reaching out to radiation facilities to obtain quotes and help us determine the best path forward.
But Carolyne’s needs extend beyond the cost of treatment.
Carolyne lives with paralysis of her lower extremities, making this journey even more challenging. She will not be admitted to the hospital during radiation, meaning she will need somewhere safe to live throughout her treatment.
I’m reaching out to our Kenyan friends in Nairobi and Eldoret, praying we can find a compassionate family or widow who would be willing to welcome Carolyne into their home, help ensure she has meals, and assist her in getting to and from her treatments each day.
My hope is that we might even find a situation where we can bless two families at once — providing Carolyne with the care and support she needs while offering financial assistance to a family or widow who could use the additional income.
There are so many pieces that must come together to make this possible, but I believe every one of these precious women deserves the opportunity to receive treatment, regardless of their financial circumstances.
If you feel led to help Carolyne financially, donations can be made through Zeal 12:11, Inc. I will include the donation link below. Once Dr. Muchiri receives the treatment quotes, we will have a clearer picture of the financial need.
And if you are unable to give, please pray. Pray for Carolyne’s healing, for the right home and caregivers, for the medical team, and for the financial resources to make this next chapter possible.
Thank you for taking the time to read her story and for loving these precious souls alongside us.
❤️ Sometimes making a difference in someone’s life begins simply by refusing to look away.
I will also be posting Nativities and Baskets we have available as well! Keep an eye on it beginning Monday.
