Help Emily Fight Breast Cancer
Doação protegida
Hi, I’m Kelly, and I’ve started this fundraiser for my incredible best friend Emily—known to many of us as the vibrant, unstoppable “Crazy Emo.” If you know Emily, you know she’s full of life: kind, hilarious, and always the first to lift others up. Now, she needs our strength as she faces the biggest battle of her life: breast cancer.
Emily was recently diagnosed and has already undergone surgery. Unfortunately, doctors discovered the cancer had also spread to her lymph nodes. Her journey is far from over—she’s now facing months of chemotherapy, followed by another surgery and radiation. It’s a tough road ahead, but if anyone can meet it with courage and determination, it’s Emo.
Emily is not only a loyal friend—she’s also a loving mom, a proud grandma, and a dedicated respiratory therapist who has spent her career caring for others. Her son, Jake, is currently serving in the U.S. Air Force and stationed in Alaska, making it even harder for her to have family nearby during this challenging time.
She’s facing this fight largely on her own. She’s single and currently unable to work due to the physical demands of treatment. The financial pressure is mounting, and everyday expenses aren’t slowing down. That’s why I’m asking for your help.
This fundraiser will go toward:
• Medical costs not covered by insurance
• Essential living expenses (rent, bills, groceries)
• Lost income during recovery
• Anything else she needs to focus on healing
Every donation—no matter the amount—makes a difference. And if you’re unable to give financially, simply sharing this page is an incredible way to show your support.
Emily is a fighter. But even the strongest warriors need a village behind them. Let’s show her she’s not alone.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart,
With love and gratitude,
Kelly
