Cancer Comes Calling

[dogrocketp]

I'm sure you old timers remember our Buddy, Scott R. For the last year plus, his wife Michelle has been battling cancer. Scott was disabled years ago in a motorcycle accident, and Michelle (and PRS) have been his world. He hasn't been on the forum lately because he's devoted to doing whatever he can for his wife. After an 8 hour surgery, they thought Michelle had beaten the big C. She has not. The next step is to find the money and go to Mayo Clinic, which isn't exactly around the corner from Alabama. I hope this doesn't violate any forum rules, but a Gofundme has been set up on Facebook. Go to Michelle n Scott Russell and take a look. If any of you can help, please do so. He's my friend, even though I live at the other end of the country near the PRS factory. I want to do anything I can for him. He needs our help.

Yep. This place has come together to make guitars happen for people. This is more important (obviously). I'm sure Scott and Michelle will appreciate any help we can give them.

Wow, I had no idea. I had been wondering where some of the old crew went and he is one that I wondered about. Thanks for relaying this information.

Can't promise, but I will certainly try. Been there far too many times in the last few years to say I don't feel that pain.

I hopped on IG for the first time in a long while and saw this. Thanks for posting here. Wishing them the best and hope they get the help she needs.

Thanks guys! She’s in good spirits, and no surprise…she's putting up a helluva fight. Thanks again to @dogrocketp for putting this out there, thanks to everyone that’s helped, and sent thoughts, prayers, positive vibes, whatever.

This is hard for me because I’m a proud person. Never thought in a million years we’d be on this end of a fund raiser. But my love for her is for more stronger than any amount of pride I have. Thanks again guys. It means so much. And thanks again @dogrocketp for putting this out there.
