** Here is my story **

I found a lump in my breast in March of 2025 , I have never had a lump ever . I thought it was a cyst or lipoma and I got it checked right away . Sadly I was told in June of 2025 it was cancer . Invasive Ductal Carcinoma IDC. The tumor is large anything over 5cm requires a mastectomy . I was not prepared for this , in addition after the surgery I will need to wait to see if it has spread into my lymph nodes . As you can imagine I'm scared .

Since the mastectomy on sept 8th I have been diagnosed at stage one . This is treatable but I will need treatment .

My work does not have disability so I will not have any income , as well EI ( unemployment insurance ) is simply not enough to cover my bills . I never married and I have no children I'm all by myself and of course my parents are elderly . Simply put I need help .. I just was not prepared for such a tragic event in my life .

your continued support eases my stress as radiation could be more time off work , I don’t have all those details yet but I hope that in the next 2 weeks I can close this chapter .

If you have donated already please share with more people and I thank everyone in advance .

Much love for all your support . Wendy .
