Cancer Sucks!!!

Donation protected
Hey friends and family. I’m not one to put my business out there and especially not one to ask for money. But here I am - uggh! 2 weeks ago I found a lump in my breast which at the time I thought was a clogged milk duct since I’m still nursing. Multiple scans and biopsies later - Nope it’s cancer - stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma with lymph node involvement. It’s HER2 positive so there is some great treatment options and I have to do chemo first but damn that shit is expensive. My insurance only covers 90% so each cycle is gonna cost me out of pocket 2600$!! Never-mind the cost of surgery then more chemo then radiation and the time off from work that I won’t be fully paid for once I go on disability and FMLA Who knew getting cancer would cost me money - I’m on the wrong side of healthcare.
So here I am asking for money to help me and my girls not go broke in the midst of my health crisis. It’s almost impossible to believe this is what is happening after just having this beautiful baby girl. I had my chemo port placed yesterday and next week have a PET scan to make sure it’s contained. This has been such a shock and so unexpected. I have had tremendous support from friends near and far. I feel really loved and am thankful to everyone who has been by my side through this. Keep the good vibes thoughts prayers and everything else coming my way. I’m strong and will fight like heck through this. Thank you for any amount you can donate.
