On a beautiful Indian Summer morning on October 6, 2007, Susan Barron was walking her dog to the Blessing of the Animals service at a local church in the Murray Hill area of Manhattan when a random act of unthinkable violence changed her life forever. The attack on her was so brutal that it was called in to the New York City Police Department as a homicide. It is miraculous that she survived.

Susan has been in a Manhattan hospital for three months, and has endured 13 reconstructive surgeries. She faces more surgeries and intensive physical therapy. And while her good heart and spirit are still intact, this incident, which stunned the city, has left her in need of financial assistance to help her pay her bills and afford the home care she will need. Friends of Susan have created this website in her honor to give those concerned about her a place to donate much needed funds and leave their thoughts and prayers for her. We thank you for your concern for this amazing woman who has touched the lives of everyone who has known her.
