Help Kathy Fight Breast Cancer

Donation protected
Hi! My name is Jon Davidson, and I'm a good friend and neighbor of Kathy Pothier. Last month, Kathy, after months of waiting and attempting, via medication, to shrink her tumors, underwent a double mastectomy. During surgery, doctors discovered that cancer had spread, not just to the surrounding lymph nodes, but to the tissue around them as well. As a result, Kathy needs to undergo more radiation than expected, and will be starting a 5-week course of radiation next month, and undergoing a hysterectomy next year. She is also having to put her businesses on hold, pay out of pocket for some treatments, and travel 2.5 hours for each treatment while she fights this enemy along with her husband Chris and their three amazing kids.

Every year for the past eight years, I have been a Men Wear Pink ambassador, raising money for breast cancer research and awareness. This year, though, breast cancer has upended the life of one of my dearest friends, so I wanted to raise money specifically for her and her family, as well.

Thank you in advance for your generosity. Kathy has given so much to so many, and now we have a chance to show our thankfulness and support for her in a tangible way!
