Help Lucy's Fight Against Brain Cancer

Hello, my name is Lucy, and I am reaching out for help during one of the most challenging times in my life. I’m an elementary school teacher from San Diego, CA, currently living in South Lake Tahoe, CA, with my loving husband, Chris, and our loyal black lab, Bailey.

Over the past few months, my life has been turned upside down with a diagnosis of stage 2 brain cancer. The news was devastating, and while the road ahead will be tough, I am determined to fight. I’ve always been the one to support and care for others, but now, I find myself in need of support.

Your donations will directly cover critical medical expenses, including brain surgery, chemotherapy, hospital visits, and medications. In addition, it will help with daily living costs as I focus on recovery. Every donation, no matter the amount, will make a huge difference in my ability to stay strong and continue fighting—for myself, my husband, and my students.

As much as Chris and I struggle with asking for help, we know we can’t do this alone. Any support, whether it’s a financial contribution or simply sharing this page, will mean the world to us.

Thank you for being part of my journey. Your kindness, generosity, and encouragement will make all the difference during this difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

Lucy (and Chris) Piccinini
