She Cared for Us—Now Let’s Care for Her

She Stood by Us—Let’s Stand by Her

Help an Extraordinary Nurse Fight the Toughest Battle of Her Life

To all friends, family, patients, and kind strangers: We are reaching out with heavy hearts and unwavering hope to support someone who has spent her life selflessly caring for others—now, she needs us to care for her.

She is an exceptional nurse, colleague, friend, and healer, was recently diagnosed with cancer. Her diagnosis came as a shock to all who know her—someone so full of life, compassion, and strength.

For years, she has stood at the bedside of countless patients, holding their hands through the darkest hours, advocating for their health, and giving everything she had to help others heal. Now, it’s our turn to return the love.

This diagnosis has brought with it an emotional and financial burden no one should bear alone. Despite the strength she’s shown, the journey ahead is long—filled with treatments, hospital visits, time away from work, and the many costs insurance won’t fully cover. We are asking for your support to help ease the financial stress of:

Chemotherapy and other treatment costs

Transportation to and from medical appointments

Unpaid time off work

Medications and supportive therapies

Everyday living expenses during her recovery

No donation is too small. Every dollar is a gesture of love, solidarity, and gratitude for someone who has given so much to her patients and community. If you’re not in a place to give financially, please consider sharing this message and keeping her in your thoughts and prayers. Let’s show her she’s not fighting this battle alone.

With deep gratitude,

5 South/SDU Staff
