| Welcome to b2g! |
One of our members, Nurse Teresa, has patiently waited for over two years to be banded. During that time she has given beyond measure to educate and support those who have been fortunate enough to be banded, in spite of the fact that she herself suffers with co-morbidities that make life miserable. With no insurance and the income of a single mother, Teresa has prayed for the opportunity to one day be banded and begin her own journey to better health. That opportunity is here, but she needs our help. We are trying to raise enough money to cover her "down payment" on band surgery so her dream can be realized. Many of you have asked for ways to return the blessing that b2g has been to you. This is one way that would greatly bless Dawg and me. So please, help us change a life. Take a moment to help a fellow member. Click HERE to learn more about Teresa and how you can help! |
