Bobbie's Battle with Breast Cancer
Donation protected
My name is Sam, and a dear nurse I work alongside is battling Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Bobbie and her family are about to have some of the most challenging days, so I wanted to try and help alleviate some financial stresses through donations and contributions. She also has a meal train account, so please feel free to donate to either or both.
Bobbie tells her story best, so here are some of her words.
"The end of April I went in for a routine mammogram; then came the phone call requesting that I come back in for a diagnostic mammogram. Subsequently I ended up with MRI and biopsy. May 5th I got the call that I have Triple Negative Breast Cancer in the right breast. The next couple weeks were a whirlwind of scans, biopsy of the left (which has precancerous changes), baseline labs and tests, and placement of a port for chemotherapy. I began chemotherapy on May 24th and the plan is to receive 20 weeks of chemotherapy & immunosuppressants treatments. Then I will go for a double mastectomy and follow up more immunosuppressive treatments.
The fight has begun and with God, Family, and Friends all supporting me I have faith we will win this battle!!
I want to thank each and everyone of you for all your prayers, love, and support during this journey! Please know that I deeply appreciate you all!!!"
