Six friends of a Milford woman have rallied around her and have created a GoFundMe site to help cover medical expenses and other related bills following her 18-month effort to beat cancer.
Faith Villani is now recovering but to help get her back on her feet, her friends created the site in November, according to the GoFundMe listing.
"When it affects a person directly, cancer poses obstacles that go beyond just the medical treatments. Survivors and their families often have a mountain of bills to deal with. Our friend Faith is now among those people," wrote Sherri Gonzalez.
A little more than $2,000 has been raised to date, with a goal of $10,000.
