Help for Punk Rock Mommy
Who - Andrea Collins Smith - a/k/a Punk Rock Mommy.
What - well, she's dying of cancer. While breastfeeding her last child, she was suffering some strange pains. It was discovered she has the most horrible/aggressive form of breast cancer - inflammatory breast cancer. By the time they found it - it had already spread into her spine and other parts of her body. At this point - they are giving her a few weeks, maybe a few months.
Where - they currently live in Fishtown but have to vacate their home (owner has sold it). A friend is renting them a 'fixer upper' in South Philadelphia at below market. They need people and supplies to fix up the property so it's livable. They have to move by 8/25 so if there are listeners who can donate skills/material/moving - it would be great.
Contact Info - I think the best contact would be via email through punkrockmommyhelpers@hotmail.com. A core group of people head up this email address and coordinate everything for Andrea.
You are also welcome to post her blog www.punkrockmommy.org
