Help Jodi Fight Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Donation protected
On March 6th, 2023, Jodi Parker was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Always a health-conscious person, with a clean mammogram only a few months behind her diagnosis, the suddenness and severity of her illness came as a shock to us all. Triple-Negative breast cancer is dire. It does not respond to most forms of treatment, and it is likely to come back even after remission. Currently undergoing chemotherapy, with a double mastectomy on the calendar, Jodi is fighting her absolute hardest against one of the most severe forms of breast cancer there is -- but she needs your help.
Jodi is a social butterfly, a mother of two, and a devout member of St. Pius Catholic Church in Appleton, WI. She loves to steal the show at karaoke, write and play her own music on the piano, and spend time with her family (not least of all the family cockapoo, Gryphon). She was also an instructor at Gill-Tech Academy for many years, where she shared her cosmetology expertise with aspiring stylists throughout the Fox Valley area. And while her ongoing treatment has not been easy, it has not shaken her optimism or her faith. Even in these darkest of times, Jodi continues to amaze us with her spirit and her inner light.

However, monthly expenses have been a challenge for Jodi and her recovery. Shortly before her diagnosis, she married a man who promised her that if she quit her job he would support her in sickness and in health. He broke his promise. Now unemployed and unable to find work that will accommodate her road to remission, she has no choice but to call on the kindness and generosity of those who can offer it. Every dollar you give will go toward keeping a roof over Jodi and Gryphon's heads while she fights to make her full recovery.
