Fawn's Faith, Hope, & Love Fund

Donation protected
This amazing, talented, & hardworking lady whom we all know and love was recently diagnosed with Stage 2B Grade 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. This form of breast cancer is very aggressive, yet usually reacts well to chemotherapy.  Although Fawn has a trying journey ahead of her this year, we know that with her determination and God on her side, she will overcome this obstacle in her life and become a survivor of this diagnoses.

It was early December when Fawn first noticed a lump in her left breast.  At first, she didn't think much of it, but after being advised to go get it looked at, she chose to schedule an appointment.  After, multiple tests, she was told that she did indeed have invasive ductal carcinoma.  The next step was to meet with the doctors and surgeons to determine if the cancer had yet spread to the lymph nodes and also to figure out the route of treatment that would best suit her needs.  In early January, Fawn had an MRI, removal of 2 abnormal lymph nodes and a Chemo port put into the right side of her chest.  Upon getting these test results, she was told that that 1 of the 2 lymph nodes removed tested positive, but the 2nd one remained negative.  So, it is time to set a plan in place and get ready to start kicking breast cancer's butt!

As of right now, Fawn has endured her first round of Chemotherapy, which took place on Friday 1/22.  This will now be followed by another round every other Friday for two months, then they will switch her to weekly treatments for the following 12 weeks. After Chemotherapy is complete, the Dr's will wait 4 weeks before performing a double masectomy, with possible radiation for at least 6 weeks to finish off the treatments.  Needless to say, Fawn is going to have a trying year ahead of her, but she is ready to take this cancer head on and win!

As everyone that knows Fawn is aware, she has worked her tail off all of her life to build the best future for her and her daughter.  She travels every day to inspire others and make them feel beautiful! If you know Fawn, you know that she is constantly on the road and always working.  With this diagnoses, we are unsure if Fawn will be able to keep up with her hectic work schedule and maintain all of her client's appointments, which is why we have decided to start this Go Fund Me page for her.  Not only will her medical bills start to accrue, but with all of her lost wages, we want to try and help her stay afloat in any way that we can. 

Any donations would be greatly appreciated and we are asking for all of your prayers as well. Being the prideful woman Fawn is, we know she would have never asked for this help in her time of need, so this is something we wanted to do for her. She has always been the one to help others and we pray that those of you reading this find the compassion in your heart to share the blessing with her.
