Our family is reaching out with heavy hearts to support Carah Hayes, a loving mother, daughter, sister, and friend, as she faces the toughest battle of her life. Carah has been diagnosed with Stage 4B Cervical Cancer—a diagnosis that turned her world upside down in an instant.

Carah is being treated at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, where her amazing medical team is doing everything possible to help her fight this aggressive disease. Her cancer began as a large tumor on her cervix and has spread to nearby lymph nodes and her pelvic bone. She has already endured multiple biopsies, procedures, and hospital stays, including a recent 3-week hospitalization for severe complications and over 7 blood transfusions.

Her Treatment Journey

Carah has started an intensive treatment plan that includes:

• Radiation therapy

• Chemotherapy

• Immunotherapy (which will continue for the next 1–2 years)

After six weeks of this initial phase, she will begin high-dose chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. She also had a ureteral stent placed to preserve kidney function due to the tumor’s pressure. Through every step, Carah has shown incredible strength and courage, but this journey is long, difficult, and expensive.

Why We’re Asking for Help

Carah is a devoted single mother to two amazing children, Andrew (11) and Parker (8). Her biggest wish is to be there for them and keep life as stable as possible while she fights this disease. Unfortunately, cancer brings not only emotional challenges but also overwhelming financial burdens.

Your generous support will go toward:

• Medical bills not fully covered by insurance

• Household expenses (mortgage, utilities)

• Reliable transportation for frequent hospital visits

• Medical supplies and prescriptions

• School supplies and essentials for Andrew and Parker

• Basic needs to keep her home running while she focuses on healing

Your kindness will help give Carah the strength and peace of mind to focus on what matters most: fighting for her life and being there for her kids.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting Carah and our family during this difficult time. ❤️
