Help Stefi with her breast cancer treatment
Donation protected
I have only known Stefi for a few months, but to know her is to love her. In her first week at Beauty and Grace more people brought her flowers and gifts than any other new stylist I've seen. She's thoughtful and kind and genuinely cares about everyone in her life.
Five years ago, Stefi was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. She had surgery, radiation and hormone therapy and has been in remission ever since. Since then, she's been working, traveling, and feeling great with plenty of energy, so it was very surprising to learn that her cancer had returned. She was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that has metastasized in her bones.
Stefi's doctors recommend surgery, chemo and radiation but do not promise much. She has exhausted her resources and found a clinic that she believes will give her her very best chance at living a longer, healthier life. Treatment at this center is going to cost $50,000 out of pocket. As we all know, going through treatment costs a lot more than just the treatment itself. There are travel expenses, loss of work expenses and just regular living expenses, but Stefi isn't the type of person to take any more than she actually needs. She specifically told me she doesn't need money for the whole treatment because she has some savings. I've set the goal for this fundraiser for the bare minimum required for treatment, but I would love if she gets enough to help with some of those other expenses as well.
Please, donate what you can and keep Stefi in your prayers.
