Christi's Battle/Funeral Fund

Christi is my husband's sister and just celebrated her 40th birthday in September.  This past summer Christi was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer. Unfortunately, she is younger than the recommended age for breast cancer screenings.  Sadly, she had noticed some breast changes a few months prior and mentioned it to the ER staff during a sick visit and at a thyroid appointment.  Her concerns were dismissed, and she was told caffeine could cause lumps in breast tissue.  By the time her concerns were taken seriously, it had advanced to stage 4 cancer that has spread to other organs and tissues.  Her treatment involves oral chemotherapy and hormone therapy at this time.  They have told her it is incurable, but they hope to manage it with this treatment regime and hope to shrink the tumor.  Christi has been married to Frankie for 20 years and is the proud mother of a 19 year old son named Gabriel.  Christi and her family live on a very fixed income and have found the added gas expenses, persrciption costs, eating out during hospital and doctor  visits for treatments and care, and other basic needs a real financial challenge.  I wanted to bless them by starting a GoFundMe page to ask most of all for your continued prayers for this family.  We believe in and serve a mighty God who has the power to heal and gives hope, peace, and strength in our times of need.  We know if is  God's will, he can heal her from this cancer and restore her.  She is in good spirits despite the side effects of chemotherapy and is fighting the good fight. 

If you feel led to assist them financially, donations of any amount would be a blessing to them.  I would love to see them have some extra money to enjoy doing more things together as a family like maybe taking a trip, making memories doing fun things they enjoy, and not worrying about where the the money for the next bill, medicine or need will come from.  

If you are unable to give or prefer not to, we understand.  Prayers are the best line of defense when in battle.  We covet your prayers and know they do not fall on deaf ears.  

Thank you for lifting up this family in prayer and assisting them in their time of greatest need.
