<div>I am Vanessa, your average, almost 40-year-old single mom. A few months ago, <strong>I was diagnosed with stage 2B HER2+ breast cancer in my left breast.</strong> I am currently undergoing the TCHP chemotherapy treatment and have just finished my 3rd round of infusions as part of a 6-cycle, every 3 weeks regimen. I will then have a double mastectomy, reconstruction surgery, and another 6-9 months of targeted radiation and chemotherapy in order to reduce recurrence. Suffice it to say, it has been rough. The side effects of the medications are intense and scary at times. I went into anaphylactic shock during my second infusion and had to remove that medication from my treatment plan. I am trying to remain positive, and there are some good days, but for the most part, it’s emotionally, physically, and mentally exhausting.

<div>Getting a diagnosis like this is not what I had in my plan. My plan is to be on this Earth for a long time, to see my son grow, become a man, and have a family of his own. To enjoy this beautiful life that I have been given and to enjoy it with the people I love the most. That is still my plan, but I need help.

</div>

</div>

<div><strong>I am starting this GoFundMe to help offset the financial burden that beating this cancer has brought upon me and my family.</strong> I have been out of work since May 5th and with the treatment schedule and surgery over the next year and a half, I am not sure when I will be able to fully return to work. The donations will cover outstanding medical bills as well as future bills, cost of living, and other everyday life essentials.

<div>If you are able to donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you aren't, saying a prayer or sending a positive note is just as much appreciated!!

</div>

<div>With Love,

</div>
