Beth Ingram is a co-worker and very dear friend of mine. She has had a pretty rough year. At 33 years old, she is 27 weeks pregnant with her second child (her first is just two years old) and was recently diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive type of sarcoma. The initial cancer was discovered in a fast-growing tumor on her hip. It was surgically removed. Unfortunately, the cancer has now spread into her lungs. She starts chemo next week. After her little boy is born, she will continue with a more aggressive form of chemo in the hopes that the cancer in her lungs will shrink.
As you can imagine, Beth has accumulated quite a few medical bills. And since short-term disability payments are typically a fraction of a person's regular salary, her everyday bills are piling up, as well.
It is because of this that Beth's friends and family are banding together with her to make these awesome yellow paracord bracelets in order to help Beth and her husband raise the money they need while she is fighting this horrible cancer. Yellow is the official color for sarcoma awareness.
I bought my bracelet! Here is where you can buy yours: https://www.facebook.com/groups/214227825592007/
