First she created Lighthouse Commu- nications, which relays healthcare informa- tion to people who are at risk. The services and literature are free of charge and avail- able in English and Spanish. Lighthouse Communications has three main goals: Breast health awareness, education and mammography outreach; helping people cope with physical afflictions; and reduc- ing the health disparities found in minor- ity communities. Next, her Foundation began sending a mobile breast cancer screening unit to un- derprivileged communities. Now the unit goes out twice a year to Grove View Ter- race, Campbell Terrace and other under- privileged areas in Fayetteville where most residents do not have health insurance or the means to take care of preventive medicine. After the free mammogram and education session, each woman receives a lavender rose. The Foundation's theme is a lighthouse in the midst of a storm, with God's hands around the lighthouse. Each woman who is newly diagnosed with breast cancer is presented with a basket full of $70 worth of therapeutic goodies that Sherri found comforting during her battle with breast cancer: A CD of soothing ocean music, lavender linen spray, lavender foot scrub, a lighthouse figurine and some other items. Sherri said the baskets filled with laven- der scented items have significance for her because after her surgery she THOUGHT SHE WAS? rejoicing and rolling in a field of flowers. Later she realized that her hus- band had sprayed her hospital bedding with the lavender linen spray because it is known for its soothing qualities. Now she associates the smell of lavender with that happy feeling and so she tries to share that experience with other women. Sherri is greatly in need of volunteers to share love and provide support for those undergoing this devastating disease. Foundation volunteers go with breast can- cer sufferers to their appointments and often help provide meals for patients after their hospital visits.
