Please help my friend Martina!
My friend, Martina Dawley, and her husband, rescued a puppy after they witnessed it get hit on August 4 in rural Arizona and watched the driver drive away without even slowing down. To make matters worse, when they tried to alert the people in the house nearby (who appeared to be the owners), they said to "leave it there" and remained unconcerned ( Read more... ) -

new friends...
OK. So I am not sure why I seem to have suddenly attracted a bunch of Russian LJ-ers. But, I don't speak, nor do I read Russian, so I can't find out about you, and so won't be adding you to my friends list.

trade
My friend's mom has cancer. It was breast cancer, and had been treated, seemingly successfully. Now they have found a tumor on her lung. They don't yet know whether this is a seperate cancer, or if it is metastasized breast cancer (which would be worse).
