Story
**please see updates above for the latest** Dear Loved Ones: As you know, my sister Larissa has been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. While we have some info and she has LOTS of appointments, there are still a lot of unknowns. I set up this page to give us all a place to connect and support her in this process, and for her/us to be able to update loved ones as easily as possible. For now, we know the following would be helpful: (1) just check in for general support, (2) financial support via Zelle: [email protected] / Venmo: https://venmo.com/u/Larissa-Hahn. We will update the calendar as we get more information and are more clear on needs. She (and we) are very grateful for your support and care. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions. Lots of Love, Vanessa
Special Notes
updated on 12/1: In terms of support, there are many ways to help: 1) Just checking in and expressing care and concern. This is a difficult time of processing. 2) Hang out sessions (e.g. brunch, coffee, walks, karaoke, etc). Larissa would love to spend quality time with loved ones doing fun things! Just reach out to her. 3) Monetary support. Larissa's temporary work contract recently ended and we have applied to get her disability, but that will take some time. At the present moment, the easiest way is to send anything you want to offer via Venmo, which is linked to the Give In Kind calendar (in case, here is her venmo info @Larissa-Hahn). This would help Larissa with basic expenses, like groceries, etc. 4) Bringing Larissa comforting things, like home cooked meals. -->Contact me (Vanessa) or Larissa if you need her address since I don't want to list it publicly here
