Jessica's Brain Cancer Fight

Donation protected
Dear friends and family,

In May 2023, my best friend and amazing sister Jessica Prost was diagnosed with a stage 3 cancerous brain tumor. Over the past few months, she has undergone 2 brain surgeries, dozens of brain scans, and countless appointments - not to mention an unbearable amount of pain. As she continues to recover from surgery, she's undergoing chemo and radiation treatments to attack the cancer. While this news has been devastating for our family, Jessica is a fighter, and her courage has inspired us all.

For those of you who are unaware, Jessica has completed 3 years of schooling (having one year left) to become a CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist). Even with all of the appointments and pain, Jess remains determined to overcome adversity and graduate. I believe with our collective support, we can help her fulfill her dream.

When I first asked Jessica about fundraising, she immediately said "No - I don't want to ask for money, I feel bad. It is not their responsibility".... This is emblematic of who Jessica is - always thinking of others, and asking for nothing in return. She prioritizes her family and friends daily with no exceptions. Her infectious laugh and unwavering kindness throughout the most challenging journey of her life, is a testament to the kind of human she is and the best role model I could ask for.

You never think something like this will happen to someone close to you - and then the unexpected hits. It is a life-changing journey for Jessica and our family. It has been physically and emotionally devastating, as well as a financial burden. The costs associated with medical treatments, and ongoing care are mounting rapidly. I am hoping to do everything I can for my family, and to help Jessica beat cancer, aid in paying her medical bills, and successfully finish her dream of becoming a CRNA.

We continue to ask for your thoughts, prayers, and positive energy to surround Jessica and our family. If at all able, any generous financial contribution will make a meaningful impact.

Please respect my family's privacy during this time as well, and I respectfully ask that you not reach out to Jessica. Your messages and love will undoubtedly lift all our spirits.

Thank you all - We love you Jess!
