Hello, my name is Kiera. On the evening of February 9, 2023 while relaxing in my bedroom, I suffered a seizure that was caused by a brain tumor. Doctors believe it to be a Glioma, however, we will not know for sure until after my surgery on March 1st.

I lead a very health-conscious lifestyle and eat organic foods as much as possible.

That lifestyle is now in question.

The tumor is “not small” and is in the part of my brain that controls speech production. It is also crossing over into the right hemisphere of my brain. After meeting with a fantastic surgeon at a notable cancer center in Tampa, I have accepted that not all of tumor can be removed. There is a risk-benefit ratio that will be adhered to, and I will have to rely on chemotherapy to resolve the rest, hopefully.

I am a wife as well as the mother of a beautiful 4-year-old son, Carter. He is aware that mommy has a tumor in her head and that it needs to be removed. The money that is raised will go towards my medical expenses, recovery care, living expenses and Carter’s care and activities.

I am an alum of North Carolina A&T State University (Aggie PRIDE). I played the euphonium in the marching band and pursued music at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. I love my family and enjoy all things anime, Disney, and Harry Potter.

With the support of my family and friends, I have been able to maintain the best and most positive outlook. I am engaged in this fight and have adopted the slogan “we are beating this!”

Please help by partnering with me to fight the biggest battle of my life. Please help me “BEAT THIS!”

Your support will be a blessing to me and my family and will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!!!
