My sister, Sasha, is...
A follower of Christ, single mother to her beautiful 3-year-old Elliana, friend, daughter, sister, girlfriend, grand-daughter, cousin, and niece. All of those that know her know that Sasha is STRONG, simple, sweet, and leaves a sweet aroma wherever she goes. She has been able to conquer many challenges in the past, and all with a positive attitude, perseverance, and an abundance of grace.
In early September 2020, Sasha found a lump on her right breast by way of self examination. Later that month she scheduled a mammogram and ultrasound, in which results found another mass next to the one she had already discovered. On October 7th, she went in for a painful biopsy. Two days later she received a call from the nurse informing her that she did, indeed, have breast cancer.
During a follow up confirmation diagnoses appointment on October 12th Sasha was officially diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma ER+ and PR +. This means that the hormone receptor positive cancer is using its natural hormones as fuel for growth in the ducts of the breast.
Unfortunately on Monday October 19th, the HER2 test came back positive following the IHC and FISH tests which means the recommended treatment is to immediately start chemotherapy prior to undergoing mastectomy.
In the next several months Sasha will undergo a surgery for a port, chemotherapy, and a mastectomy, followed by hormone therapy infusions for a year.
We are currently waiting on BRCA gene test results....
Money raised will go towards medical bills, cold cap (which is not covered by insurance) holistic medicines, freezing eggs (which is also not covered) and other costs that may come up.
NOTE: Go fund me takes 2.5% money raised so if you prefer sending donations directly to her Venmo account instead @Sasha-David-1
We believe in the power of prayer! Please pray for peace, discernment, the physicians, the surgeons and the healing of her physical body. We place all of this in God's hands to bring her through this hard to fathom obstacle; with her friends, family and loved ones by her side supporting and cheering her on as she has always done for us!
Your donations, shares, and prayers are appreciated so much. Updates will be provided periodically as new information develops.
Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation
