In 2013 a few weeks before Jenna's birthday, her mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Jenna ended up dropping out of college to care for her for almost two years until she could fight no more. Jenna spent the next few years rebuilding her life. She went back to school and is working on her degree. She met the love of her life and got engaged. They just bought a house and were renovating it, so they could move in and start a family after they got married. It was 2025 and a few weeks before her birthday, this time it was her diagnosis. Breast Cancer, stage 3. She was 31.
Luckily Jenna is a fighter! She has continued to work and go to school while undergoing Chemo treatments and planning her wedding. She will finish her last treatment right before her wedding and will undergo surgery a few weeks later. This won't keep her down and it won't keep her from living the life she has dreamed about. Unfortunately, it is expensive and the costs for future procedures are unknown at this time. All she knows is that she is going to keep working, keep going to school, keep fighting with her soon to be husband at her side, and hopefully down the road be able to have the family they dreamed about.
She gave up everything to take care of her mom and now needs help herself. Even the smallest donations add up and can help offset some of the costs. Anything would be appreciated.
