Fund Jeannie's Fight Against Pancreatic Cancer

Update 5/16/25: After bravely completing radiation, Jeannie has now begun another grueling round of chemo—treatments that have left her unbearably sick and physically drained. As a result, she’s only able to work limited hours, and with disability payments delayed for six long months—despite being approved—her family is now trying to stay afloat on a single income.

In just the last two weeks, Jeannie has been hospitalized multiple times for extended stays. Instead of being able to sit by her side, hold her hand, and offer comfort, her loved ones are forced to spend those precious moments at work, trying to keep up with mounting expenses.

Any donation or share makes a meaningful difference. It eases the heavy financial burden, allowing her family the gift of time—time to be with Jeannie, to support her, and to help her focus on what matters most: healing.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your support.

As many of you know my sister Jeannie (Tompkins) Babcock has been battling pancreatic cancer for about a year now. Last May she started having a lot of pain and it took them until October to figure out what it was. On October 22, 2023 at 43 years old she was diagnosed with an inoperable cancerous tumor in her pancreas. She went through 6 months of chemotherapy hoping to shrink it enough to be able to operate, but unfortunately THAT did NOT happen! She now has to go to NYC for radiation treatments. These are a special type of radiation treatment that IS NOT offered here at home, but gives the best chance of overcoming a disease, that has turned her life upside down. She worked through most of her chemo with her job being very understanding. But it is now getting to a point that money is a worry, with trips to the city, husband is running out of leave time from work, and medical bills starting to pile up. She was trying to make it without asking for help ..... but it's gotten to a point that some help would allow her to relax and be able to get through her treatments without having to worry about not being able to pay her bills. Please help my sister be able to focus on fighting this cancer, any little bit helps.
