This fundraiser will benefit my mom, Colleen Pearce, and her upcoming medical expenses. My mom has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 colon and liver cancer. In February, she had undergone gastric bypass, and a tumor was found due to a postoperative problem. In many ways, that surgery saved her life. She is a fighter and has a positive attitude about her diagnosis. However, we all know fighting cancer doesn't come without expenses.

The funds donated will be put towards her copays, medications and other medical expenses. I know we won't cover all costs, but maybe we can alleviate some stress during this challenging time. Please pray for her as she starts her first chemotherapy treatment next week. We will try to keep updating throughout this journey.
