Hi, my name is Erika, and I’m a single mother who has overcome breast cancer. After months of treatment and surgeries, I’m incredibly thankful to be cancer-free. I’m now preparing for my final reconstructive surgery—an important step toward healing, closure, and moving fully into this next chapter of life.

As a single mom, balancing recovery, medical expenses, and everyday responsibilities has been challenging. There have been days when the weight of it all felt overwhelming, but I’ve always tried to stay strong for my child. This surgery will bring additional costs and recovery time, but it also represents hope, strength, and a fresh start after cancer. The financial strain of medical bills, time away from work, and the need to provide for my family makes this time especially difficult.

Any support—whether through a donation, sharing this page, or kind words—helps ease the burden and allows me to focus on healing and being present for my child. Your kindness and generosity mean so much to me. Thank you for being part of my journey and helping me move forward with hope. With gratitude, Erika
