My name is Angel, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my little sister — someone I love more than words can express — who is now facing the fight of her life, Alidia.
Just a few weeks ago, our world was turned upside down when my sister was diagnosed with stage 4 Nasopharyngeal cancer — a rare and aggressive form of head and neck cancer. In the blink of an eye, everything changed for her… and for all of us who love her.
It started out as what seemed like something small. She had jaw pain and swelling in the lymph nodes that we thought might be TMJ. The dentist agreed, did X-rays, and gave her a mouth guard. But the pain only got worse. Her lymph nodes had been swollen for months, but she was told not to worry — that it was probably nothing. But she knew her body, and she knew something wasn’t right.
Eventually, she took herself to the ER. That one brave decision set everything in motion. From there, she was sent for a biopsy, blood work, CT, MRI, and a PET scan. At first, doctors suspected lymphoma, and we all braced ourselves for that diagnosis. But the results told a different story — one none of us were prepared for.
It wasn’t lymphoma. It was Nasopharyngeal cancer — rare, aggressive, and completely unexpected. Even the medical team hadn’t considered it at first because of how uncommon it is.
Now, my sister is facing the unimaginable. She’s had to put her life on hold — stepping away from full-time nursing school and a full-time job that she worked so hard to balance. She had dreams of becoming a nurse to care for others… but now, she’s the one who needs care and support.
She’s currently undergoing a grueling 6–12 month chemotherapy and chemoradiation treatment, all while living far from family. She’s fighting to stay strong while managing rent, groceries, student loans, and now, overwhelming medical bills, treatments, and care.
This has been the scariest and most painful chapter of her life. Some days, the fear feels unbearable. But she’s still holding on — to faith, to hope, and to the belief that she can beat this.
That’s why I’m here — to ask for help.
If you’re able to give — whether it’s through a donation, sharing her story, or simply lifting her up in prayer — it would mean more to our family than you can imagine. Every bit of support goes directly toward helping her survive this — by easing the financial burden so she can focus all her strength on healing.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading. Thank you for caring. And thank you for standing with my sister in this fight. ❤️
If you would like to reach out to her personally, you may text her! It may take some time for her to respond during her treatment weeks but she will reply when she’s is up for it!
