Deborah Hyden

On January 7^th, 2017, Deborah had a hip replacement surgery. While she was in recovery, they thought she had a stroke and she had an MRI. Sadly, they found her brain full of cancer. The doctors gave her 1 to 3 months to live. Against all odds she endured 3 rounds of radiation, 2 rounds of chemo and then a stem cell transplant from UC Davis Cancer Center. She has been cancer free for 7 years.

Since then she has experienced a myriad of health issues including a cracked hip, a very bad UTI, a blood clot, then a GI bleed, a bowel obstruction, RSV and shingles. She is such a fighter and has endured everything with a smile. Because of all the issues, she had been bedbound for the past 2 and a half years.  She desperately needs a wheelchair van and wheelchair access to the bathroom. She would love to be able to go to the store, have better access to doctor visits and also the ability to take a shower.

She had a horrific childhood filled with abuse. As a young adult her fiancé committed suicide. She has lost her entire family including her parents and 4 siblings. Yet in spite of all this, she has spent her life giving to others, even raised her grandchildren for many years. She truly has a heart of gold!

We live is a farmhouse built in 1917. It is our DREAM HOME; however, it isn’t without some major issues. It needs mold and vermiculite abatement and insulation for our cold winters, along with the bathroom renovation.

Please consider giving to provide the wheelchair van and home renovations for Deborah’s comfort and quality of life. Thank you!
