Some of you have asked how you can help.

This donation page was originally set up for those who wanted to help us get through long hospitalizations and travel to hospitals. Now it’s here for those who want to help contribute toward the expenses Ray’s illness and complications have created. I realize that many of my friends and family members are spread out across the country and feel powerless to be supportive physically. If you like to contribute, I’m humbled and grateful. If you would like to contribute to one of the causes we’ve always supported as a family, I’ll be putting up that information along with memorial service details as soon as everything is arranged.

Donations made here will be processed through PayPal. Don’t have a PayPal account? Don’t worry, you can choose to use a debit or credit card. The form below will redirect you to the PayPal site. If you have trouble using the form you can go directly to my PayPal link at: https://www.paypal.me/BarbBallard

If you’d like to see where this journey began, you can read the post “The Beginning” which chronicles Ray’s original diagnosis and treatment.
