Michelle spent weeks of suffering with infections, vision problems, loss of appetite and extreme exhaustion without knowing why. On Christmas Day, her doctor in Eau Claire sent her to the Mayo Clinic where she was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of cancer. With multiple tumors in her body, she was put in the ICU where she was placed on dialysis and underwent extreme chemo therapy.
Michelle is making a miraculous recovery ... but has been left with many bills and won't be able to work for some time. That's where we come in.
