Help My Mom Through Kidney Cancer Surgery & Recovery

My name is Kim, and I’m raising funds to help my mom, Brenda Hanes Bentley, as she prepares for major surgery to remove her kidney due to a cancerous mass. Her surgery is scheduled for December 1st, and our family is facing a number of financial challenges related to her care.

Why We Need Help

This diagnosis has required multiple trips to Columbus for scans, appointments, and surgical consultations. These trips involve:

Gas and travel costs

Hotel stays

Meals during travel

Time away from work

Additional expenses during her recovery

We are hoping to raise $2000 to help relieve some of this financial strain so we can focus on her healing.

About My Mom

My mom has always been the person who helps anyone in need. She has opened her home, shared her food, provided companionship, and given whatever she had without hesitation. She has spent her life taking care of others — and now she is the one who needs support.

How You Can Help

Any amount — big or small — truly makes a difference. Even if you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser helps more than you know.

Thank you so much for your kindness, support, and prayers during this difficult time. We appreciate you from the bottom of our hearts.
