KATHY SHAIDLE OF FIVE FEET OF FURY AND STEYNONLINE.COM AND HER HUSBAND ARE HAVING A FUNDRAISER:

The pic above is Kathy in NYC several years ago.

Kathy is doing well at home and has homecare nurses and a doctor attending. She is suffering ovarian cancer and is now in palliative care.

We hope to hold on to her at home for as long as we can.

This is day two of Kathy’s Fundraiser. We’ve had a wonderful response to date and both Kathy and I are very grateful.

We know it’s a big favour to ask but we have about $50,000.00 dollars left on our mortgage and hope to pay it down before its scheduled end in 2024. As many of you know my Sainted Irish Mother has been looked after by Kathy and I these past few years. Kathy worked from home allowing me to work outside. That has now ended and our financial situation has taken a huge hit. Eliminating the monthly mortgage payment will ease our financial situation considerably and allow Mom to be looked after at home while I work part time. LTC in Ontario is a Covid nightmare and not an option.

If you can help with a donation or already have we thank you. We know not everyone can but your kind wishes and prayers mean as much to us.

You can donate via the PayPal Kitty button on their blog’s sidebar or via Interac email transfer to .

Having enjoyed Kathy’s writing for nearly 20 years, I donated.

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): I kicked in a hundred bucks. I’m devastated at her health situation, but at least I can do a little to ease the blow. I hope you will too.
