Dear Family & Friends,
As most of you may know, I've been fighting breast cancer - a battle that has tested me in ways I never imagined. While I've completed the hardest part of my treatment, my journey isn't over. I still face radiation, two surgeries and years of medications and injections that will be part of my life as I continue to fight for my health.
These past few months have been exhausting physically, emotionally and mentally. I've had to take time from work for treatment and recovery. Unfortunately, this has left me with unexpected expenses that have put a strain on my finances. Not only do I have myself to take care of, but I also provide for my son. Everyday, I tried to juggle my healing while trying to hold everything together, but I'm at a point where I just can't do it alone anymore.
I've always been a strong, independent woman who's always taken care of things - for myself and my family - but right now, I feel overwhelmed and in a difficult time to make ends meet while still focusing on my recovery. The financial strain and the emotional toll is heavy, and it's tough to even ask for help. But here I am, humbly asking for your support, because I have to.
Any contribution, no matter how small, would ease this burden and allow me to breathe a little easier as I focus on getting better. It's not only for me, but it's for my son too. I want to be strong for him and show him that we can get through anything with love and support.
Thank you from the depths of my heart for being there for me. Your support, whether in prayers, kind words or any financial help, will mean the world to me. I don't take this lightly and I'll forever be grateful for each of you.
With all my love and gratitude,
Jessica
