Help Krista Beat Breast Cancer

Donation protected
My sister, Krista, is a 33 year old mom raising 2 children, Ariana - 4 and Lauryn 9 months. This summer she began struggling with query mastitis; after months of pain, numerous antibiotics and a two week hospital-stay, she was diagnosed with Ductal Carcinoma on Friday October 5th. We remain unaware of the stage but they predict stage 2 / stage 3. Only weeks prior to her admission, she left mat leave early to aid in the financial strain of a one income family and began working at a daycare along with her babies (to have the opportunity to stay close to them) while making full time wages.

The cancer is aggressive and she just completed the second of six rounds of chemo therapy, which will end in February 2019. While she is going through her treatments she is unable to work because her immune system is compromised. She is now surviving on only her re-instated Mat Leave which will run out early 2019.

Donations will go towards daycare/preschool costs, treatment costs (as she has no medical insurance,starting a new job), housing costs etc.

No donation is too small and we as a family are very thankful for anything that is given.
