Patrishann Hiibner is a lovely young woman who has always faced life’s challenges with courage and a cheerful spirit. Despite living with neurofibromatosis (NF1), she has dedicated many years to volunteering with the Sisters of the Marian Missions, helping at fundraisers and caring for the elderly. Her kindness and hard work have touched many lives, and she continues to inspire those around her.

Recently, Patrishann’s condition has reached a critical turning point. She is now facing a large tumor in her abdomen and a medium-sized tumor near her spine. These painful and crippling complications have made it impossible for her to continue doing the things she loves. Without surgery, her life is at serious risk. Patrishann is currently in Ecuador, undergoing testing and imaging to determine if the surgery can go forward. Her doctor is confident that he can perform the complex procedure, but no date has been set yet. The most recent surgeon determined that what appeared to be a hernia is actually the tumor pulling down on her thorax, adding to the urgency of her situation.

We are reaching out to raise funds to cover the costs of Patrishann’s multifaceted surgery and her time in recovery. Your support will help her access the life-saving care she needs and give her hope for a brighter future. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and is deeply appreciated. Thank you so much, and may God bless and reward you for your kindness.
