If you're here, you love Lina.  She gives with her whole heart and then digs up more to give.  I don't know how she does it.  Well, against her will, I'm setting up this page so we can all give back to her.  She needs support although she'll try her best to convince you otherwise.  

Hopefully, and this sounds awful, she'll be in the hospital for a few months.  She needs to keep cooking that baby!  We can help the family with meals, words of encouragement, funny stories, flowers (she loves RED) anything to lift her spirits and maybe keep her entertained a bit too.

Stay tuned as the story is ever changing.  Thank you for supporting Lina and her family.

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo
