<div>Holding Kristen Up While Layla Fights Her Battle

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Hi friends,

</div>

<div>I’m sharing this update on behalf of someone who needs and deserves as much support as the world can offer right now.

</div>

<div>Kristen is doing what any mother would do if her baby was battling cancer: everything. She’s caring for Layla, who is not yet two years old, through feeding tubes, hospital visits, and now—an entire year of chemotherapy. Once that year is behind them, if all goes well, Layla may be old enough for radiation.

</div>

<div>That sentence alone is impossible to sit with. But Kristen does sit with it. She lives it.  And she’s doing it while still trying to give her older son, Grayson, some sense of normalcy, some space to be a kid, even while everything around them has changed.

</div>

<div>Kristen is out of work for the foreseeable future. She has to be. Layla needs her. Not sometimes—always. And while Kristen is giving everything she has to her children, she’s also facing the reality of life’s constant demands: food, bills, gas, and the quiet, exhausting weight of trying to hold it all together.

</div>

<div>This GoFundMe is to help her do that. To take even one layer of stress off her shoulders, so she can keep showing up the way she already is—with strength, with love, and without ever making her kids feel the heaviness of what she’s carrying.

</div>

<div>When Layla was first diagnosed, so many people showed up for this family. Your support meant the world—and it still does. We know how much everyone is being asked to carry these days, and we don’t take a single bit of it for granted. We’re just hoping to give Kristen a little more time, space, and stability as she keeps walking this path beside her daughter.

</div>

<div>If you can give, thank you. If you can share, thank you. And if all you can offer right now is your love and good energy, that’s welcome, too.

</div>

<div>Every dollar raised will go directly to Kristen to help cover life expenses, travel to and from treatment, and the basic day-to-day needs of caring for two children—one of whom is in treatment for brain cancer.

</div>

<div>Kristen is out of work while Layla undergoes chemotherapy, and without outside help, staying present for her daughter means falling into financial instability. This campaign is about giving her some breathing room—to care for her children without the crushing stress of survival on her shoulders.

</div>
