SEATTLE — He is the picture of health - she of struggle. But looks can be deceiving.
That's how she met Steve. Deborah has been married for 33 years, has two children, and is the former President and CEO of the Economic Development Council of Snohomish County. She wasn't accustomed to needing help, but MSA doesn't care what she wants.
They both know someday - sooner rather than later - she'll lose her battle. But before she goes, she's saving another soul: Steve's.

After the Aurora Bridge crash, people in our area jumped into action, donating hotel rooms, blood, prayers.. challenging Seattleites' reputation for being chilly. It inspired me to pass along stories of when we see people in the community coming together, or what I call #SeattleAntifreeze.
