At 33 years old-- and 18 weeks pregnant with my second child-- I was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer. In a matter of weeks my world has been turned upside-down as I've taken medical leave from my beloved job in early childhood education and started my first round of chemotherapy.

Funds donated will go toward:

  • medical bills
  • hiring birth & postpartum doulas to help my family navigate our perinatal experience
  • compensating the portion of lost wages not covered by disability insurance

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support through this strange, new season of my life. My community means the world to me and I’m taking great comfort as I lean into your embrace.
