I'm making this GoFundMe for my dear friend, Julie, and her beautiful family. Julie is currently financially supporting her large family consisting of her partner, two children, her sister, and her mother. Even under the best of circumstances, it costs a lot to support a large family, but Julie was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She does have insurance, but the medical bills are already piling up.

Once her cancer treatments start, she will have to miss work while she and her family head to Seattle- a two hour drive each way- for multiple visits a week for radiation and weekly chemo. While there, she will need to find a way to cover the cost of transportation and cost-of-living expenses like food, a place to stay, etc. Needless to say, that is a whole lot for any one person to juggle.

Julie and her family are some of the most genuine, kind, caring people I've ever met in my life. They are the kind of people who will jump to help when they hear that you have a problem that you need help with. They are the type of people who will give you a shoulder to cry on. They will literally give you the shirt off their back if needed.

I'm hoping our wonderful community will do the same for them and offer them the same support and encouragement that they offer so many others. Any little bit will help and would be so appreciated!

UPDATE: Julie is heading to Seattle for surgery tomorrow morning (10/9/24)…Any support, positive thoughts, prayers or kind words would mean so so much
