Big fundraising push for my sister's medical expenses

So far using the ChipIn! widget on the side of this blog, I've raised $330 to go towards my sister's medical expenses, and a friend mailed a check for $25. That's a total of $355 so far. I recently found out that friends and family back home in Tennessee are holding a benefit for her on November 6. I'd LOVE to be able to send her a check for $500 that she could open at or before the benefit.

Can you help reach that goal?

If you do not do any online banking, you are welcome to mail a check to me at the following address:

Tonya Rosenberg
P.O. Box 611
Issaquah, WA 98027-0023

Please put "Loretta's Medical Bills" in the memo line.

**UPDATE: October 24**

Sissy has had her first chemo treatment. Apparently she had a pretty adverse reaction (like an allergic reaction) and is not feeling well. The next treatment is November 8, two days after the scheduled benefit.

For those of you in Tennessee - my family and friends still in McMinnville - here is the basic info that I have regarding the benefit:
