Help A Single Mom With Needed Surgery
Donation protected
Amanda is a one-of-a-kind, loving, positive person and single mommy to 9 year old twin girls, and they need our help! Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012 she underwent a double mastectomy with reconstruction. She now needs additional surgery due to a rupture and silicone illness that makes every day a struggle. She is not planning to re-implant because of the risks, (she had another surgery in 2018 to replace the first set of implants after they caused lumps and pain) but instead, do an en bloc explant with a diep flap (tissue from her own body) reconstruction. Unfortunately her surgeon, one of the few specialists in her area that does this procedure, is out of network, so her portion will be in the 10's of thousands. Having not been able to work much in the last year due to her illness, there are no funds to cover this. But this life saving procedure needs to happen immediately to prevent any further silicone seepage into lymph nodes and elsewhere.
I am organizing this fundraiser as a friend of Amanda's since 2002. Every penny donated will go to Amanda. Any amount given, or even just sharing this campaign is helpful. Prayers and healing energy are much appreciated...
Thank you!
