<div>Fighting Breast Cancer &amp; Facing Surgery,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve started a GoFundMe to help with medical, travel, and living costs during recovery. Any help—donating or sharing—means the world to me. Thank you so much for your support.

<div>Hi everyone,
</div>
<div>My name is Brenda, I was diagnosed in 2024 with Stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma (breast cancer). As I’m now preparing for the next step in my journey to undergo a double mastectomy with reconstructive surgery as part of my treatment plan.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This next phase will take me out of work for 6–8 weeks. My surgery is out of state in Phoenix. I'm required to stay there for 2-3 weeks, where I’ll be covering my own lodging, food, and transportation—all while continuing to pay my normal monthly bills back home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why I’m Asking for Help:
</div>
<div>In addition to the Travel, lodging, and meals during my out-of-state treatment, I’m still responsible for my Mortgage, utilities, groceries, and essential bills as well as Medical expenses not covered by insurance. All while I recover without income as I have exhausted all my "paid leave" at wrk from previous appointments, procedures etc.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help:
</div>
<div>Your support—whether through a donation, a share, or simply sending love and Prayers —means more than words can say.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every bit HELPS and  goes directly toward helping me cover:
</div>
<div>Medical-related travel and recovery costs and living expenses while I’m unable to work during my safe and supported healing journey.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and stand with me during one of the hardest chapters of my life. I am deeply grateful for any help you’re able to give.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and hope,
</div>
<div>Brenda
