I, Isabella, am the daughter of a loving and hard working woman, Doranne, who was just diagnosed with Stage-Three lung cancer. This gofundme is being created to help cover the costs of upcoming medical expenses for her treatment and to hopefully give her a month-long train trip she can enjoy up the west-coast of the usa, especially with her being unable to work due to the treatment. One of her final hopes is to see north of San Francisco, as she has never been. This train trip with her two children, myself included, is a way to complete her wish to see Oregon and Washington state and make memories with us before she passes.

She’d been a hard-working single mother from before the day I could even form memories, and I hope that we can raise the money to not only cover any debts formed from medical treatment of her cancer, but to also make a dream come true and make one more great memory with her. With 85% chance of up to 5 years left with her, I hope to be able to give her this one thing. She sacrificed a lot for my brother and I as she raised us alone, and I want to be able to give her at least one thing.

The main goal is to take care of any of the financial burdens coming from the medical costs, if we are able to do the trip it would be a bonus, but my priority is to maintain my mothers health and wellbeing during this time. Thank you to anyone who can donate, or share this, it means the world to me, my brother and mom. Genuinely, it means a lot to me to every one of you that even take the time out of your day to read and see my moms story.
