Help Ashley Face Her Brain Tumor – A Fight No One Should Face Alone
The Diagnosis No One Wants:

After months of brutal headaches, extreme double vision, and a body screaming that something was wrong, Ashley received the news no one is prepared for: a large, benign brain tumor—a meningioma—growing at the base of her skull.


While it’s "not cancer," the tumor’s location makes it dangerously complex. It’s pressing against her carotid artery, entwined with her pituitary gland, and sitting in a web of critical nerves and blood vessels. In her words:

"Most surgeons won’t touch it. The risks of coming out worse are higher than coming out better."


The Impossible Choices:
  • Radiation is her primary option—but it could potentially destroy her pituitary gland (leaving her on hormone replacements for life) and possibly her optical nerves impacting her vision.
  • Waiting isn’t safe. The tumor could grow, stealing more of her vision, mobility, and peace.
  • Every day is a battle. The headaches leave her debilitated. The double vision keeps her from driving, working, even walking confidently.


"Some days I feel okay. Other days I’m scared, angry, and overwhelmed—like my whole life just flipped upside down."
Why We’re Asking for Help:
Ashley is the kind of person who shows up for everyone else—a devoted mom, a hard worker, and the friend who never lets you struggle alone. Now, she’s facing mounting medical bills, lost income from being unable to work, travel for treatment and hospitality expenses, and the emotional toll of a fight with no easy answers.
Her husband puts it plainly:
"We believe she’ll get through this, but she shouldn’t have to fight alone. We’re terrified. We need your help."


How You Can Be Part of Her Fight:
  • Donate: Every dollar helps cover treatment costs, travel expenses, and basic needs while she heals.
  • Share: Even if you can’t give, sharing this link spreads her story further.
  • Leave a note: A message of hope reminds Ashley she’s not invisible in this struggle.


A Final Plea from Ashley:
"If something feels ‘off’ in your body, don’t brush it off. Keep pushing for answers. Advocate for yourself."


Let’s honor her strength by giving her the support she’s always given others. No one fights alone.
