THE DUFFY FAMILY
The Duffy Family by: Brenda Bisharat Photography
Welcome to Pietra’s Village
“It takes a village” is a phrase that the Cameron Park Community takes to heart. One of our families needs our help. Right before Christmas 2009 Pietra Duffy (mom, wife, friend, KidzArt teacher) was diagnosed with Stage 3B non-small cell adenocarcinoma (lung cancer – nonsmoker). Two weeks later, Shawn Duffy was laid off from his job.
Right now 100 percent of their efforts have to be focused on curing Pietra – helping her get through every day of grueling chemotherapy and the side effects that are inevitable. We do not want them to have the added stress of the fear of losing their home because they can’t afford the increased cost of COBRA and other medical expenses.
A HUGE THANK YOU FOR EVERYONE WHO CAME TO THE SPAGHETTI FUNDRAISER ON MARCH 19TH. IT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS! THE DUFFYS WERE ABLE TO SEE AND FEEL HOW LOVED THEY ARE BY OUR COMMUNITY!!
STAY TUNED FOR A SLIDESHOW OF THE EVENING AND HOW YOU CAN HELP WITH OUR FUTURE EVENTS. WE ARE NOW PLANNING A GOLF TOURNAMENT IN MAY!

I hope you get a huge response from friends and strangers alike. I know the tragedy of loosing a parent to illness, but have also seen God heal a friend when we were planning their death because doctors gave no hope. I know how great Our God is and that he offers hope, still heals and will provide for your needs. I’m so happy to be a part of the body of Christ and a community who comes together to help each other. I too, don’t know you personally but am praying for your family. I can’t wait to read of the miracles that happen for you.
