I started this fundraiser because I went in for a biopsy after feeling that something wasn't right, and the results came back showing cancer. Now I need surgery to remove the rest of the biopsy site, and I am facing that while unemployed and without insurance.

This has been especially hard because cancer has already taken so much from my family. I lost my uncle, who was like a father to me, to cancer. At the same time, my other uncle is dying of stomach cancer. Getting this diagnosis in the middle of that has made everything feel very dark for me, especially as I also battle BPD.

The funds raised will go toward the surgery I need to remove the rest of the biopsy site. Without insurance and without work right now, I cannot cover this on my own.

If you are able to help, any donation would mean so much to me. Even if you cannot give, sharing this fundraiser would help me feel less alone as I try to get through this and move forward with the care I need.
