Fight for Katie

In August, 2016 Katie was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.  In order to beat this disease Katie will undergo a lengthy treatment of 6 months of chemotherapy, breast surgery and 6 weeks of radiation.  Katie is planning on working as much as she can but obviously will need to take time off from work to beat breast cancer.  Much of the time that she will need to take off will either be unpaid or at a substantially lower income.  

Katie has been married to Jarrod Ansell of Acme, PA for eight years.  Two years ago they were blessed with their miracle, Josiah.  He is an adorable ball of energy with the sweetest disposition.  Both Jarrod and Josiah will be the driving force behind Katie's fight.  

This page has been set up by Katie's best friends from Berlin Brothersvalley High School.  We have been friends with Katie since she moved to Berlin school district in 1992.  We have been through all of the ups and downs together, including her mother's fight with breast cancer.  We are doing everything we can to help make these next few months as easy and stress free as posible.  Your donation will go directly to the Ansell family to be used for medical expenses and household bills.  If you would prefer to help the family in other ways, please visit our Care Calendar at https://my.lotsahelpinghands.com/community/katieshelpinghands/home.

We would be incredibly grateful for anything you can provide to support the Ansell's in this challenging time of their life.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact us through this page.  Katie, Jarrod and Josiah will be extremely touched by your generosity and incredibly grateful for your support.  Let's all work together to help fight for Katie!
