I do not do this very often but this is my midwife's sister in law and I feel a burden for her and their family. If the Lord enables you, please consider helping this dear family.

Amy Caldwell Bixby:
To many people, it’s just another name, but to Jonathan, her husband of 15 years, and children; Cara, John, Nathan, Arielle, Eliana, Jeremiah and Gilead the name is much more. Amy is a loving wife, mother, housekeeper, teacher, confidante, counselor, nurse, cook, taxi driver, accountant, and the list goes on! In other words, Amy is a beloved wife and mother
In October 2008, Amy was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. At the same time she received that news, Amy and Jon were also told that they were expecting their 7th child! The days following were dark, but through surgery, chemotherapy, the birth of a very healthy baby boy, radiation, and the aid of the Susan B. Komen foundation things began to brighten. Within a year the cancer was gone. Hopes were high for the reoccurrence to be many years down the road.
In October 2010, at her regular check up, the scene changed dramatically and abruptly. The doctor had bad news following some blood work and a follow up body PET scan. Cancer was found in Amy’s liver, spine, and hips. The outlook is not very bright. Amy’s oncologist has supported her desire to seek alternative treatment, however the cost is exorbitant.
Jon and Amy cannot afford this option which will increase the quality of Amy’s life, and perhaps extend the quantity of her days. In order for Amy to get the most out of her numbered and cherished days with her children and husband, they need our help.
