Join Diana's Battle for Health and Home

Dear friends,

I'm reaching out to our community, on behalf of my friend Diana Giovannone. Diana is currently facing one of the toughest battles of her life: that being her second battle of Ovarian Stage 4 Cancer.

Here is HER story...

Hi everyone, my name is Diana Giovannone. As some of you may already, I am battling cancer for the second time around; and if you have followed my journey on my Facebook page, then you're familiar with the details. Here is more of my real time, real life journey.

I am currently 52 years old. I have two beautiful children, Antonio and Angelina. In July of 2020, I was diagnosed with ovarian stage 4 cancer. At that time, I was living with my boyfriend of 5 and a 1/2 yrs, Elliot. He was my sole provider. He helped me and my children and on August 3, 2021 I was Cancer Free! On August 31st Elliott passed away suddenly and with his passing I could not afford our rental home and insurance on my vehicle alone. I basically lost everything which I then discovered the tragedy of homelessness, depression, and being carless. Seeing my children was difficult for me. I somehow came out of homelessness on my own and in March of 2022, I found a place for which I still reside two years later.

Fast forward to March of 2024, I got the worst news of my life....Ovarian stage 4 Cancer has returned and this incurable disease came back more aggressive and comes with a limited time of my life expectancy.

Money is limited; and with having my medical co-pays on bills and also trying to provide for myself on the daily, and keep a roof over my head and also to see my children, I am now four (4) months behind on rent . This past month I've gone to the Atlantic County State Buildings on multiple occasions trying to get any kind of assistance for help. But have been repeatedly refused and told I am NOT qualified for assistance.

This week, if I'm unable to get caught up and cover this months rent, then by Friday, May 17th. I will be evicted. After beating everything the first time, and everything starting to get better, I never would’ve thought I'd be in this situation again. The topper! I have my third and last chemo treatment the same day. I'm so scared right now.

During all of these hardships, I have never asked anyone for help when it comes to money and my finances. I was always able to make ends meet, working when I was able and picking up odd jobs to cover what needed to be covered.

Becoming homeless again and attempting to beat Ovarian stage 4 cancer once again is incredibly scary and challenging and I now, I cannot do this alone.

I’m coming on here for as much help as I can possibly get.

Every dollar counts and every prayer counts, too. Thank you for takin the time out to read my Story.

Have a blessed day.
