Life can change in an instant, and right now our family is facing one of the hardest chapters we’ve ever experienced. My sister, Sandra, is recovering from major abdominal surgery to remove ovarian cancer. While we are hopeful and trusting in her medical team, there are still many tests, appointments, and unknowns ahead to determine if the cancer has spread and what further treatment may be needed.

Her recovery will be long and challenging. As a childcare center teacher and someone who spends her days caring for others, being away from work for several weeks during recovery will create both emotional and financial strain. Between medical expenses, household bills, transportation to appointments, recovery needs, we are asking for support during this difficult time.

If you are able, any donation — no matter the amount — would mean so much to help ease the burden while she focuses on healing. We also know not everyone is in a position to donate financially, and we completely understand. Gift cards for DoorDash, grocery stores, or local restaurants would also be incredibly helpful during recovery when cooking and daily tasks may be difficult.

Most importantly, we ask for your prayers, love, and encouragement as Sandra recovers and faces the long road ahead.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting her during this time. Every share, donation, gift card, message, and prayer truly makes a difference.
