Dear friends and family, thank you so much for your love, encouragement, and prayers throughout this journey. Your support has carried me through some of the darkest and most painful moments of my life.

In May 2023, I was diagnosed with a rare cancer — Subcutaneous Panniculitis-Like T-Cell Lymphoma. Over the past two years, I’ve undergone multiple treatments, endured setbacks, and by God’s mercy, finally reached remission in 2025.

Now I am facing the most critical and life-saving step: a stem cell transplant. This isn’t just another treatment — it’s essentially a medical rebirth. My immune system will be completely destroyed and rebuilt from scratch using the healthy stem cells donated by my baby sister, who miraculously is a perfect match. Her selfless gift is giving me another chance at life.

 ⚠️ Why this is so serious: • The transplant requires high dose chemotherapy that will completely wipe out my immune system. For weeks, I’ll have no natural defenses against infection. Even a small cold, a cough, or a surface germ could be life-threatening.

 • I will be hospitalized for at least a month, then on 100 days of home recovery. During that time, I’ll need to follow extreme precaution. 
 • My body will be fatigue but I’m praying against the worst possible side effects or any form of transplant rejection or graft vs. host disease.

Every day will be about rebuilding strength and protecting myself from infection.

 ‍‍ Caregiving needs: I won’t be able to care for myself. I’ll need:
 • Help with hygiene and sanitizing my environment daily.
 • Transportation to and from countless follow-up appointments, labs, and treatments. • 24/7 monitoring for fevers, infections, or dangerous complications.

 My amazing mother — my biggest supporter — will be my full-time caregiver. She is putting her own work on hold to keep me safe and cared for every single day of this process.

How you can help: Since neither of us will be able to work, I’m humbly asking for your support to help cover:
  •Housing needs: After I’m discharged from the hospital, I will be at the hospital daily during recovery period and need to relocate near the hospital. Your support will make this possible. 

• Essential recovery supplies (food, hygiene items, immune-safe meals)
  

 • Hospital-related costs (gas, parking, food during long stays)
 • Loss of income during these months of recovery
 • Support for my mother as she steps into the role of caregiver

 Every single donation helps — whether big or small — and will directly ease the heavy burden of this process.

 You can give through my GoFundMe, or support me by shopping my remaining inventory at chosenbrandco.com.

This transplant is my chance at life, and your generosity truly helps carry me through to the other side. Thank you for being part of my healing story.


 With gratitude & love, Holly
