Help Belle Overcome Stage 4 Cancer

Our beloved friend Belle - mother of three, artist, writer, photographer, and all-around magical being - was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer and is now facing the toughest fight of her life.

Over the past few months, she’s begun a difficult journey through chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, surgery, and recovery. Cervical cancer is an extremely debilitating disease that causes excruciating daily pain and exhaustion and prevents her from working, and the side effects from the treatment make things even harder. We’re rallying around her now with love, and with a call for support to ease the overwhelming financial burden that comes with this battle.

Belle has been my best friend since we met in sixth grade, and she’s one of the fiercest creative forces I’ve ever known. Alongside co-founding La Mort with me, she’s spent decades helping other visionaries and creative folx bring their work into the world in powerful ways (including launching The Deathwives and running it behind the scenes for years). She’s the kind of person who can walk into a room and see the sacred architecture within the chaos. She builds new worlds. She dreams on behalf of the collective and shows up for everyone.

Now it’s time for us to show up for her.

That’s why we’ve created Belle’s Wellness Fund - a dedicated fund that ensures your donations go directly to support Belle and her children. Every dollar contributed will help cover the cost of continued treatment, therapies not covered by insurance, medical co-pays, and living expenses.

I love our community and how we can come together to support one another in our darkest hours. I have felt completely lost watching my best friend go through this, but I know that with your help, we can support her and her children in life-changing ways. Thank you so much. I love you all.

With love,

Lauren
