Support Tonya Richards-Hudson

Story

Please support Tonya Hudson — as we all know her, Ms. Hudson. She was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer, and we want to rally around her during this incredibly stressful time. Her family has faced multiple health challenges over the years, and she has remained strong for everyone around her. Now it’s our turn to be strong for her. Gift cards are the most helpful way to support her family right now so they can use them as needs come up. This is likely a better option than a meal train, especially as they navigate new routines and treatments. She will have more work in front of her going forward. Thank you so much for caring for this precious family during such a difficult season. Simply click on her wishlist and purchase the gift card of your choice. You can also choose the Care Card or Visa card options. There are no wrong or right amounts. Give from your heart. Tonya's Post... A month ago, I received the news that no one wants to ever hear... You have cancer. On Oct 17th, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. I went to the Dr for one issue, and they stumbled upon this... BUT GOD! I say that to say, listen to your body. Drs are confident they caught it early, and my prognosis is good. Surgery is this Wednesday followed by all of the other unfortunate things that come with having cancer. This past month has been an emotional roller-coaster. I have cried (and still do), I have questioned God (why me), I have been angry, and I have been thankful. A huge thank you to my friends and family who sent texts, encouraging messages, called, made me laugh, dragged me out of the house, and prayed when I couldn't. There are good days and emotional days. My family has definitely been through A LOT these past two years. I'm praying for Job's faith. God allowed him to go through so much stuff that would break the average person, but his faith didn't waver... I need that faith and strength! Learning to trust God even when life is painful and unfair. Pass me not, O gentle Savior Hear my humble cry While on others Thou art calling Do not pass me by.


Special Notes

We are focusing on gift cards so the family can use them as needs come up, rather than organizing a full meal train right now. We’ll keep an eye on how things go through the rest of this month and December, and reassess as needed. Thank you for your consideration.
