Thank you for visiting HelpFrankie.com.  You may remember Frankie Tkach Starnes, as I do, from our time together at Davie High School, Class of 1984.  For those of you who may not know her, Frankie is someone's mother, someone's wife and someone's sister. 

Frankie has been diagnosed with and suffers from Chiari Malformation and Cranial Cervical Instability.  This is an incurable condition that causes Frankie great pain and limits her ability to enjoy a normal lifestyle, and is currently life threatening.  She is scheduled for a serious surgery on her brain and spine that may help relieve some of her discomfort, and prolong her life.  While this is a positive thing for Frankie and for her family, the medical and travel expenses are tremendous.  The clock is ticking, as Frankie is due to have this surgery on May 01.  Her financial need right now is to raise $9,000.

Many of us have been in tight financial spots before, and we know all too well that worrying about money is not a good feeling.  And when we are sick, a positive attitude is paramount, if we are to begin to heal at all.  Please join with me in helping a friend, and contributing to her well being.  If you would be so kind, please consider making a donation to assist Frankie and her family in this difficult time.  Even five dollars will make a difference. 
 

Simply go to PayPal.com and select the Send Money tab.  Enter the amount of your donation, and Frankie's email address... frankie39starnes@yahoo.com .  Or you can simply send a check.  The address is:  Frankie Starnes, 106 Lochaven Drive, Apt 105, Charleston SC 29414. 

Think about this...you could spend $5 at Starbuck's and get a lovely cappuccino, or you could donate that same $5 and make a real difference in the life of a beautiful person.  Many thanks in advance.
