I've so dreaded the thought of doing this. But the time has come to explore all avenues. Our savings are depleted, and I am at risk of not being able to even meet the copays needed to continue treatment.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer on May 12, 2025, exactly one week before my 57th birthday. I am about to have my final chemo treatment. Then I will have a double mastectomy, a year of an immunologic called Herceptin every three weeks, and I'll be put on estrogen blockers for 7-10 years.

I am one of the lucky ones, and I am so thankful! My prognosis is great, and life will go on. But financially, this is more devastating than you can imagine until it happens to your family.

I know these times are so hard on everyone, but Tami and I deeply appreciate any assistance anyone can provide.
