Trish was diagnosed with an advanced and aggressive breast cancer in October of 2022 and a treatment plan was immediately put in place. Unfortunately, that plan involved her taking a leave of absence from work for several months. After complications and setbacks through the treatment (like almost dying- 10/10 Trish and I DO NOT recommend the almost dying or the witnessing of the almost dying, it is a tad traumatic) what was hoped to be a short absence from work has resulted in almost a full year without a paycheck. At this time the doctor's haven't released her to return to work. As a 2 income family this has been a very challenging time.

Last Christmas was fraught with stress, anxiety, fear, and uncertainty. However, her sense of humor and bright, bubbly, and joyful spirit has remained intact throughout her ordeal. I am in awe of her resilience. This Christmas I would love to provide Trish and her family with a little peace of mind. Her treatment while only 16 months has/will cover 3 calendar years. That means 3 years of deductibles on top of the bills they are accustomed to paying. Any money given will allow her to purchase necessities and pay bills without stressing over how to budget it.

I would love your help to provide her with that peace of mind this Christmas, so she can just enjoy the season with her family.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
