<div>Hello to Mallory's cherished community,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for coming to my GoFundMal page. As many of you may have heard, recent MRIs and CTs have shown clear progression of Mal's cancer with larger lesions on her spine, masses throughout her abdomen/peritoneal cavity, and on her liver. Words cannot describe the immense strength, courage, and grace that Mal has continued to show throughout this harrowing journey. She spent 5 days in the hospital at the end of March and has been battling scary and unnerving pain and changes to her body that are no longer "just side effects from chemo" - we are now in the stage where she is truly fighting the symptoms of cancer. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite all this, Mal has continued to write eloquent blog posts, make her same hilarious witty comments, and lovingly check in on her community. Mal is fierce and she is not done fighting. I hope you all are not done fighting for her. Any donation will significantly help in decreasing the added stressors of paying for the below expenses that are necessary (and costly). Our goal is an additional $7500 to support Mal and her beloved husband Christopher in these next 6 months. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Right now the GoFundMal money would be and is getting used for:
</div>
<ul>
<li>Naturopathic care and therapies for managing side effects
</li>
<li>Transportation to Nashville, NY, Boston, to and from Baltimore for 2 people (for potential clinical trials)
</li>
<li>Copays 
</li>
<li>Out of network diagnostic labs
</li>
<li>Speciality creams, ointments, etc. 
</li>
<li>Acupuncture 
</li>
<li>Oncological massage 
</li>
<li>Modified Living List items and places (eg. South Africa will not be possible, but maybe a treehouse in VA is doable) 
</li>
<li>End-of-life planning/consult/financial advice
</li>
<li>COBRA health care coverage
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In Mallory's words: "I am yet again starting a new chapter of my cancer journey with multiple radiation treatments and now starting a new chemo treatment. I hope it’s effective and I hope it’s not debilitating and I hope I am in less pain and I hope I stabilize and I hope I am a miracle patient. I’m holding all of that hope like a pinch of salt: flakey, small and necessary."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Love to you all,
</div>
<div>Emily
