If you know Monique, you know her heart. She is the first to pray for you, the first to lend her hand and the last to complain when life gets hard. In 2009 she faced Acute Myeloid Leukemia and beat it. For years we have been so thankful for her restored health and the way she has poured her love into her her children, family and friends. Now, to our heartbreak, she is once again fighting for her life.

This past May she went in for what should have been a routine dental procedure. After the surgery she developed what the oral surgeon believed was an infection. For three months she endured treatments for this infection but things didn’t improve. After weeks of pain and frustration she went to the ER at Stanford. There, doctors did a biopsy and delivered news that none of us were prepared for. They told her she had what’s called a leukemia infiltrate, also known as myeloid sarcoma, and that the cells were the same type as her previous leukemia.

It is heartbreaking to see her face another cancer battle after everything she has already overcome. But there is hope. Stanford has treatments targeted to the three specific mutations in her myeloid sarcoma. Alongside that, she will also be receiving care at Oasis of Healing in Arizona. This clinic blends conventional cancer treatments with holistic, integrative approaches to help support the whole body through healing. She will be in Arizona for next 2–3 months receiving treatments.

As a family, we know God is the ultimate healer, and Mo is trusting Him fully. We are asking for your prayers and support as she begins this fight once again. The costs for her treatments during this time are significant, and every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference.

Thank you for standing with her, for lifting her up in prayer, and for showing her that she is not alone in this journey.
