As many of you know, my aunt is not just family to me—she is my best friend. She has always been there for me no matter what, through every high and low in my life. Whether it was school, dance, or cheer, she was always my biggest helper and my loudest fan, cheering me on every step of the way.

Recently, our lives were turned upside down when she was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. She is currently in the hospital undergoing multiple surgeries, facing challenges with a strength and courage that inspires everyone around her. Even now, in the middle of her own fight, she continues to show the same love and selflessness that she has always given to others.

My aunt has always been the kind of person who helps anyone whenever she can. She puts others before herself, offers support without hesitation, and brings light into every room she enters. Now, she needs that same love and support returned to her.

We are starting this GoFundMe (she does not know about this) to help with her medical expenses and to ease the burden on her and our family during this incredibly difficult time. Any donation, no matter the size, would mean so much to us. If you’re unable to give, sharing this page would also help more than you know.

Thank you for keeping her in your thoughts, prayers, and hearts.
