fighting stage4 breast cancer with hope & holistic healing
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
As many of you know, I am currently fighting stage 4 breast cancer—but this isn’t my first battle. I first faced breast cancer September 2019, and despite fighting hard, it has now metastasized into stage 4. This journey has been incredibly difficult, both physically and emotionally, but I refuse to give up. I want to save my life.
While I continue my chemotherapy treatments, I am also seeking holistic ways to support my body, mind, and spirit. Chemotherapy has been extremely hard on me, leaving me constantly sick and exhausted. The fatigue and side effects make it difficult to get through daily life, let alone work. I’ve found a wellness retreat specifically designed for cancer patients that offers integrative therapies, nutrition support, meditation, and healing practices that could help me manage these side effects, regain strength, and improve my chances of survival.
This retreat is not a replacement for my medical treatment—it’s an addition to it. However, balancing work and treatment has been extremely difficult, and the financial burden of cancer is overwhelming. Between medical expenses, medication costs, and co-pays, it’s hard to make ends meet. Taking time off work to attend this retreat makes it even more challenging.
That’s why I’m reaching out for support. Your donation—no matter the amount—will help me take this crucial step toward healing. If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing my story would mean so much.
Thank you for your kindness, love, and generosity. I am so grateful for this community and for any help you can offer.
With love and gratitude,
