Recently our community learned that Brigitte Coles, News Anchor at our local TV station:  WMFD has been faced with a tragedy.  After a bout with some other recent medical issues Brigitte has been diagnosed with Spindle Cell Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer.  She has a long road ahead, starting with radiation, surgery, and chemotherapy.

Back in the summer of 2015 when a friend of the writer of this article was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer Brigitte was the first to climb on board and offer her persona and position to help raise money for a man she never met before.   This single act is a testament to her character and is an example of how she strives to treat everyone in the community that she serves.

It is in this same spirit we at MyMidOhio now reach out to join the many others who have offered their support to one of our very own.   Please take a moment to send your thoughts and prayers and if you have a few extra dollars a Gofundme page has been set up for Brigitte and can be found here:

At the time of this article it has raised a little more than  25% of it's goal from just 78 people!  Every little bit helps.  Please pitch in if you can.
