Hello beautiful people!

If you do not know me, my name is Katie. I am 30 years old and in June of 2023 I was terrified as I found a lump on my left breast. I was told to keep a close eye on it and we'll follow up in 6 month, the longest 6 months of my life. I was told in December I needed a few biopsies. To my horror I opened my pathology report and saw "invasive mammary carcinoma grade 3 and ductal carcinoma high grade" I could not believe my eyes. Now I am getting all of these nightmares thrown at me, "would you like to freeze your embryos it will be $12,800." on top of battling cancer. I am a hair stylist and make everyone feel beautiful. I love what I do and unfortunately I am opting for a double mastectomy and reconstruction, I will be out of work for minimum 4-6 weeks. These funds will help me survive while I am unable to work but also help my dreams of being a mom possible.

I will beat this terrible disease, please help make this possible. I love you all,

Katie Lynn Poplaski
