Hello,
This is for a great friend, sister, daughter, cousin, and mother. She is a single mother of a wonderful six year old boy and she is raising a true little gentleman. When he isn't keeping her busy, she loves photography and talking with her loyal hair clients. Anyone who knows her, knows she is very busy because she cares so much and is very passionate. She is one of the toughest and  sweetest women in the world, nothing seems to slow her down. In August of 2015 she was diagnosed with stage 2 triple negative breast cancer. She completed a full treatment of chemotherapy and had a double mastectomy. When she first informed us of her diagnosis, she was so strong, I felt as if I was more devastated than she was. I know that that can't possibly be true. It has been over a year now and she continues to go on like nothing has happened. She is a devoted mother while she continues to cut hair, execute photo shoots, and spend time with her family, most of the time in the same day. She reminds me of how precious life is. Recently, however, she had her PET scan results show metastatic breast cancer in her left lung. She wants to try some alternative and natural medicine this time and her insurance won't cover it. So that is why I am asking for help. Alternative medicine is very expensive and chemotherapy is very hard on the body. So, think of this not as plea for money to help another cancer diagnosis. Think of this as helping a wonderful person seek help to continue to be the strong, beautiful person that she is and continue to be a great friend, sister, daughter, cousin, and mother. Thank you!
