Surviving Cancer, Struggling Financially – Anything Helps

Donation protected
As many of you know, earlier this year I was diagnosed with hormone-positive breast cancer. It’s been a challenging journey, but I’ve made it through surgery and completed radiation. I’m incredibly grateful for the endless support I’ve received—emotionally and otherwise.

Now, I’m facing the next chapter: a hysterectomy scheduled in just a few weeks. Unfortunately, this means more time off work and even more medical expenses that I simply can’t afford. The financial toll from my previous treatments has already been overwhelming, and despite applying for assistance, the hospital denied my request. This next surgery will only add to that burden.

To make things more difficult, I’ll be out of work for several weeks with no sick time, no vacation time, and no income from my full-time job during recovery.

I truly hate to ask for help—but right now, I need to. I’m asking for support to help cover upcoming medical costs, catch up on existing bills, and keep up with my regular monthly expenses while I heal.

If you’re able to give anything, no matter how small, it would mean the world to me. Even just sharing this page helps more than you know. I understand times are hard for everyone, and I deeply appreciate you taking the time to read this.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
