This fundraiser is being created to support Patty as she begins an incredibly difficult and overwhelming journey, fighting small cell lung cancer. Her treatment plan includes chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy, a long, exhausting, and expensive process that will impact nearly every part of her life.

Patty is a loving, gentle, and deeply caring woman who has spent her life giving to others.

She has worked at Kroger for over 20 years as a dedicated employee, where she’s known for her warm smile, her kindness, and the way she treats everyone like family.

Her faith is incredibly important to her, and after recently being baptized, she’s leaning on her relationship with God as a source of strength and hope during this difficult time.

She is a mother, a friend, a soon-to-be mother-in-law, and a light to the people who love her. Even as she faces small cell lung cancer, Patty continues to show courage, grace, and her quiet, steady strength.

This fundraiser is a chance for those who care about her and those who will come to know her through this journey to give back to someone who has always given so much.

Patty plans to continue working through treatment, but the reality of intense chemotherapy means she will inevitably need days off when the side effects become too overwhelming.

As much as she wants to stay strong and keep her routine, there will be times when simply getting through the day will take everything she has.

Our hope is to ease the financial burden so Patty can focus fully on healing, not on bills, lost income, or the stress that comes with unexpected expenses.

All money raised will go directly toward her medical bills and co-pays, necessary medications, household needs, and any unforeseen costs that arise throughout her treatment.

Anything you are able to donate is deeply appreciated. Your support means so much and allows Patty to focus on what truly matters; fighting cancer, recovering, and protecting her overall health.

If you are unable to contribute financially, your love and encouragement mean just as much. You can share support with Patty by sending her a card or well wishes, please reach out for her address. Knowing that people are praying for her, cheering her on, and thinking of her will bring her strength on the hardest days.

Thank you for helping Patty during this difficult time.
