CRAFTNIGHT SPECIAL HELP-A-FRIEND BULLETIN>>>>>

Back in the day at the C.I.C.L.E. booth, Shay's on the right. The other photo is Shay rockin' her electro wheelchair when she was able to sit upright.

Back in the day at the C.I.C.L.E. booth, Shay’s on the right, her partner Liz is on the left: true high school sweethearts! The other photo is Shay rockin’ her electro wheelchair when she was able to sit upright.

Shay Wiessler-Sanchez and her partner, Liz, are good friends of mine. They started  Cyclists Inciting Change thru LIVE Exchange (C.I.C.L.E.) they have been a dynamic duo for the Los Angeles community, leaders, do-ers, truly awesome women.

Shay is super arty, she draws and makes stuff, but all of that has been taken away from her, along with her beloved bicycle riding. Here is Shay’s story in a nutshell, written at a time when she was doing better.

Liz and Shay have an opportunity to go to the famous Mayo clinic, where they have secured appointments with specialists to hopefully help save Shay’s life.They need to get to Minnesota (Shay needs to stay flat on her back the entire time they travel, so it’s a road trip.)

To help with their journey to the Minnesota Mayo Clinic, please send your donation to Shay’s fund. 

To be clear, the site says it has $8,000.00 in it, but they’ve already gone through that in the last year just trying to keep up with all of the various hospital stays, doctors appointments and medications that Shay has needed. and continues to require. If you want to know more, I can put you in touch with Liz, who can tell you everything about Shay’s condition, donation info, etc. and if you EVER need a medical advocate, she is AMAZING.

These are real Angelenos in your town. You might not know them, but they changed this city for good with C.I.C.L.E. (which continues to kick ass, Hi Dan! (executive director) and now they could use some help from the people. Pass this on to anyone who wants to do some good today.
