Suzie's Helping Hands
Berkeley, CA

Hi Friends-

I took quite a spill a few weeks ago, and managed to break my collarbone and ankle. I had surgery on Friday the 13th, and am currently recovering at St Francis Rehab Center in SF. I'm hoping to be home in Berkeley in about a week, but it depends on how quickly my bones manage to mend.

I'm so grateful for the immense amount of help I've already received! However, I am still going to be unable to do a lot of things for myself for the next month or so. I'd love visitors, rides to Dr appts, and help w errands while in Rehab and after returning home. Food is also very welcome, but not necessary. Thanks again for all the help thus far!!!

Tom and his family are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love that he has received. We always thought he is special. Now we know that so many others feel the same!

We are very grateful for all of the help with providing dinner for Tom and his caregivers. Thank you so much. Go Minions!

Hope for Dominic Klapperich
Martinez, CA

Welcome to our Lotsa Helping Hands Community web site.

This site has been set up in honor of Dominic Klapperich.

On February 22, Dominic was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). This is a malignant brain tumor that is inoperable.

As you all know Dominic has always been a sweet, loving, quiet, content, special Little boy. Fun loving, just happy to take part in whatever is going on, not needing to be the center of attention but rather to just be there as a part of it all. He is a wonderful big brother, a great helper for his mama and daddy, a fun friend, a great little brother, a sweet and fun nephew, an awesome cousin and an incredibly special grandson.

At this time the family is still processing what this all means.
What we do know is that they will be in great need of financial assistance to help with expenses.
Any amount you can give will help. No gift is too small.

We are so blessed to have this website as a place for us to communicate updates on Dominic and our family. We are also especially thankful for this platform as a place for us to express any help we may need and as a place for volunteers to offer help and lend a hand.

We thank God for you and your prayers to help Dominic and our Family during this time of uncertainty.We thank you so much for all your generosity, love, support and prayers.


Love,
The Klapperich and Ruport families.

Welcome to our Lotsa Helping Hands Community web site. This site provides a place for people in our area to go to request help as well as for volunteers to offer help and lend a hand.

The purpose of this site is to lend a hand to our dear friend Susie's family. We lost our beloved Susie Fox McGrath on Monday, December 10, 2012. We are all devastated to lose such a wonderful friend and family member. Susie had a twinkle in her eye, an infectious smile (and laugh) and most of all, a deeply kind heart. She leaves behind two beautiful boys, Collin and Sean and a loving husband, Dylan. She will be missed by so many.

All of you who know Sue, know she was a super mom. She was devoted to her family as well as her job. She worked so hard and loved her family so much. Let's help Dylan and boys with some of the day to day life tasks in an effort to try and help make their lives a little easier. Laundry, house cleaning, groceries, meals, doctor appointments, dentist, birthday parties, driving the kids to and from school. Let's do what we can.

Oakland, CA

Welcome to our Lotsa Helping Hands web site. This site provides a place for people to offer help and lend a hand.

From Susie about her surgery:
Just letting you know some details about my knee replacement surgery . IT is happening Monday morning at 7:30 a.m. at Washington Hospital in Fremont. I will be transferred next door after recovery room to the Institute of Joint Replacement/

I will be there 3 nights and 4 days. You can call phil at 821-3504 for an update. If for some reason there is no signal, you can call the Institute directly at 510-797-1111 and ask for me at the Institute of Joint Replacement

They suggest if you want to visit to do so after 3:00 p.m. because the rest of the time I am in rehab, etc. You can park in Valet parking because of construction. It is free.

I hope to go home on the 4th day. We will be staying at Bert's house in Montclair until Phil goes back to Mexico. You can call our cell phone or the land line is 338-3882

If you want to give Phil a hand, call him and you can help with food or dishes, or whatever else that might come up..

Dana and Phil are making a schedule to help when I get home and also when Phil goes back to Mexico. We hope for Phil to go back between 2 and 3 weeks after the surgery. Although Phil could use a little help, once he leaves, I will probably need help with shopping food, laundry, visits to physical therapy, some socializing, getting out and about, maybe even movies.I will be at Scotts house for two weeks when Phil leaves, and then I will go to Lee's house.Again Dana and Phil will be making a schedule for helping me out before and after Phil returns to Mexico. His plan is to stay between 2 and 3 weeks after the surgery, and after we see the doctor and he says that Phil can go.

To help with the plan please call phil at 821-3504 or Dana at 409-0247.

Thanks so much all of you in advance for being part of our team in whatever way that makes sense in your lives.

Gritty City Repertory Youth Theatre
Oakland, CA

Gritty City Repertory Youth Theatre (Gritty City Rep, or GCR) is the only full-fledged youth theatre company in Oakland! We produce edgy, relevant, professional work with young performers, most of whom attend or are recent graduates of Oakland public schools. We work with 14-22 year olds who are all untrained; most begin with no theatre experience; many have never seen a play. We start with physical theatre techniques to build skills and community, and our ensemble becomes very tight-knit. GCR is rigorous, provides at least a year of theatre training and performance for each participant, and is completely free for youth and their families.

Additional program benefits include two yearly retreats to the redwoods of Butano State Park, free tickets to a wide range of professional theatre, optional weekly tutoring with our Academic Coach, training with numerous guest artists in areas such as acrobatics and stage combat, and a free two-week summer program.

GCR Ensemble performers gain confidence, public speaking, leadership, and collaborative skills, and the ability to meet long-term goals. Each develops close relationships with diverse youth and adults, takes risks, and engages with challenging materials. The rehearsal process (6 hours per week in downtown Oakland) has a deep and lasting impact on performers' focus, study habits, sense of social responsibility, and self-image as positive community members. Ensemble offers young people opportunities to connect to each other, to their communities, and to themselves through theatre. Youth who perform with GCR transform, developing an entirely different view of their capacity for teamwork, endurance, and the ability to move audiences.


GCR performs 2 shows yearly, with a 2-week run of each show. We focus on modern professional productions and vivid Shakespeare themed to engage our urban audiences. One of our main goals is to increase the theatre attendance of young people in Oakland, as we believe that theatre is a natural and exciting community building experience that develops empathy and connection amongst the players AND the audience members.

Desai Family Helpers
Orinda, CA

Andrew Toby Desai is here! Let's do everything we can to help the Desai's with this gorgeous to addition to their family.
In planning with Emily, we figured out that breakfast/lunch/snacks were actually the hardest part of the day with regard to prep. So, instead of daily dinners, the family would love some help with the first half of the day. Also a few takeout nights thrown in there so they can get their fix of favorites.
In each task I included some ideas, but of course feel free to bring some of your favorites too. I'm sure Elise, Finn & Mia will get a kick out of all the delicious things coming their way.
If you have questions please don't hesitate to contact Joanne at 415-713-1358 or jmosellen@gmail.com.

Please drop-off everything in disposable containers and do not disturb.

The Desai's THANK YOU in advance for all the support coming their way. Our community is incredible!

Welcome to Heather's Helpers. As most of you know, our sweet friend Heather Davila (Ellie, Ian and Dhalia) is fighting breast cancer. She has been so brave, positive and strong and has been doing great through her surgery and recovery.

On Tuesday, Heather had her first of four chemotherapy infusions. She will receive chemo every 21 days. The first week after each infusion will be the worst and Heather and her family will need help with meals, play dates and support. This site has been developed to help Heather through these cycles over the next three months.

If you would like to help, please look at the calendar and sign up or help in any way you feel most compelled. Dinners/meals/gifts can be dropped off any day at the Ormondale school office or at Heather's house.

Heather, Michael and the entire family are so appreciative of the overwhelming love and support they continue to receive.

Warmly,
Lauren Benz, friend :)

Hana's Heart
San Francisco, CA

To read updates on Hana's condition:
www.hanasheart.com

Welcome to our Lotsa Helping Hands Community web site. This site provides a place for people in our area to go to request help as well as for volunteers to offer help and lend a hand.

Hana is Paul and Kathleen's baby born in August of 2014. On February 11, 2015 she was taken to see the pediatrician for what seemed to be an innocent cough and after a quick chest x-ray she was admitted to the Emergency Room at Kaiser to await transport to the Cardiac ICU at UCSF. Her heart was enlarged. UCSF did all they could for Hana but her condition was worsening very rapidly and they life flighted her to Stanford's, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital. The outlook was grim - she was looking like she would need a heart transplant.


To everyone's great surprise, Hana started to improve with medical care. Three weeks after her dramatic entrance to Stanford she was discharged to go home! The intention is to see how she does on medications to prolong the time before she needs a heart transplant, or even, just maybe, there is still a small chance she could even recover. Her arrival back at home, after a sudden departure, with medications and a feeding tube has created a lot of extra care and work for her parents. While they get the hang of all the new and extra things required to care for Hana at home, this site was created to help them out while they adjust to their new routine.

Welcome to the Lotsa Helping Hands. Last Tuesday, on Sept. 11th, Saba Shmuel Ron (may his memory be a blessing), Michal Reihanian's father and the children's grandfather, passed away in Israel while Michal was in transit to see him.

Michal is currently observing shiva in Israel with her family, and Hertsel is scheduled to join her on Tues, although we just learned that Hertsel's mother is in the ER with a possible broken hip. Whether or not Hertsel goes, the family clearly needs our help and support with meals, visits/playdates or whatever! Thank you so much.
