In November 2008, Cathy, a mother of three young children and Terri Millard's younger sister of 12 years, was diagnosed as having a malignant brain tumor called Glioblastoma Muliforme Grade IV. Despite the many levels of terrible news, Cathy remained unfailing in her Faith and asked only for confident prayers of friends and family to seek God's miraculous healing upon her. Her simple request was filled instantly, as her "inoperable" tumor became operable after all. For the past 2 years, Cathy has courageously battled brain cancer. Today, new hope comes in the form of a dendritic cell vaccine that engages her own immune system to seek and destroy the cancer extending precious days with her family. Although this vaccine is unavailable to Cathy in the United States, UCLA Medical Center now allows tumors to be transported to a hospital in Israel where the vaccine is approved for use. Cathy is on her way! The downside of this is the huge expense that it is estimated between $100,000.00 and $150, 000. A foundation has been set up to aid Cathy and her family. Help can be in the form of monetary donations, airline vouchers, fundraisers, both organizing and/or attending, and most of all, prayers.
