To know Shana is to love her. If you've ever had the privilege of meeting her, you know she's the kind of person who will do anything to make sure you feel safe, supported, and cared for. She has spent her entire life giving to others and now it's our turn to give back to her.

At just 46 years young, Shana was recently diagnosed with stage 4 gastric (stomach) cancer that has metastasized to her ovary. What began as simple indigestion and acid reflux quickly turned into a life-altering diagnosis that has shaken her entire world and ours.

After months of scans, biopsies, specialist appointments, and waiting what felt like forever for insurance approvals, Shana is finally set to begin chemotherapy on Monday, December 8th, 2025. Her current treatment plan includes:

• A 6-hour chemo session at the clinic

• Coming home with a chemo pump for continuous treatment over the next 48 hours

• Resting for 9 days

• Repeating this cycle as directed by her doctors

With this diagnosis comes overwhelming emotional, physical, and financial uncertainty for Shana and her husband. While he is still working and being Shana's rock, there is a strong possibility she may not be able to work moving forward.

Shana is a devoted mother to three wonderful children and a loving wife, daughter, sister, and friend. The medical bills are already starting to arrive, and treatment hasn't even begun. Our goal is to ease the tremendous financial strain of medical costs, lost income, and everyday living expenses so Shana and her family can focus on what matters most: healing and fighting with everything she has.

We're asking for your help, big or small, to lift some of this burden from Shana and her family. Your support will allow us to pursue every possible option in her fight against this disease.

If you're unable to donate, you can still make a huge impact by commenting some kind words of encouragement and sharing this page with your friends, family, and community. Every share helps our reach grow and brings Shana one step closer to the support she needs.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with Shana and helping her show cancer who's boss.
