Lisa is a devoted wife and loving mother of two amazing kids, ages 13 and 17. At just 48 years old, she is in the fight of her life.
She has been diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer that has metastasized to her lungs. Despite unimaginable pain, Lisa continues to fight with courage and determination through her fourth round of chemotherapy.
Lisa and her family have done everything they can to pursue treatment and hope. They have sought care across Texas—including Plano, Allen, and McKinney—as well as nationally recognized centers like the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix and MD Anderson in Houston. They have even explored holistic options in their search for anything that might help.
Through it all, the physical and emotional toll has been overwhelming—but the financial burden has become just as heavy.
Lisa’s husband works hard running a small business, but income has been inconsistent, and many months they are simply trying to catch up on basic expenses. Now, with the cost of care rising, the situation has become critical.
Medical expenses are the greatest strain. Some treatments and testing are not covered by insurance. One specialized blood test alone costs $10,000 out of pocket—and it must be repeated. In addition to ongoing treatment costs, the family is facing expenses for travel, medications, and everyday living needs.
At this time, they are carrying an estimated $40,000 in medical debt, with more costs continuing to accumulate.
This fundraiser is to help relieve that burden—so Lisa and her family can focus on what truly matters: her care, her comfort, and time together.
