Alyssa Van Dyke is the kind of supermom who makes life happen for her children, Coy (7) and Cedar (5). She's also facing the fight of her life.
Their world came to a sudden halt when Alyssa was diagnosed with Acute Leukemia. Her treatment plan demands immediate, intensive chemotherapy, meaning she is pulled out of work and her income stops—for a minimum of 30 days.
The Double-Sided Financial Crisis
This diagnosis isn't just a physical battle; it's a financial earthquake hitting their home stability.
1. Zero Income: Alyssa’s paycheck, which covers essential bills like rent and groceries, is gone instantly.
2. Caregiver Sacrifice: Her amazing partner must now step up to take unpaid time off to be her full-time rock through chemo and recovery rounds.
This means they are losing both incomes simultaneously.
On top of this impossible deficit, they are scrambling to secure the only health coverage that will treat her—expensive COBRA insurance. This massive premium adds a crucial, yet terrifying, cost to their already drained resources.
This isn't just about paying medical bills; it's about stabilizing their entire family's foundation so Alyssa can focus 100% on getting better. We need to lift this financial terror so her partner can be present, not stressed about the next bill.
How You Can Stabilize Their Home
Every $5, $10, or $25 contribution is a direct investment in Alyssa’s recovery and Coy and Cedar's stability.
Your help will immediately cover the critical pillars needed for them to survive this crisis:
• Securing Her Health: Funding the urgent, expensive premiums to lock in critical COBRA coverage.
• Keeping the Lights On: Covering essential monthly bills like rent, utilities, and groceries, which Alyssa's income used to support.
• Support for Her Rock: Offsetting the massive wage loss endured by her partner so he can remain by her side without crippling the family budget.
