Who this will help

‼️‼️UPDATE ‼️‼️
I completed daily radiation treatments for almost two months, driving over 30 minutes each way. Currently, I am undergoing a hormone therapy called Verzenio, plus A monthly shot Faslodex which causes strong side effects like neuropathy, making it impossible for me to work. I’m also in the process of one final reconstruction surgery, praying this time it will be successful.

In February 2025, I underwent reconstruction surgery, but it was unfortunately unsuccessful and I needed emergency surgery just a week later. A month later, I faced a third emergency surgery, and then a fourth and final one in April. These setbacks were exhausting physically and emotionally, but I kept pressing forward. Still need one more surgery to finalize my breast reconstruction but I asked my surgeon to give me a break from all this general anesthesias.
“Cancer has taken a lot from me, but it will never take my faith. I’m still here, still fighting, and I believe God is writing a story of hope through my life.”
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS
‼️‼️Update ‼️‼️
Hello everyone, this is Ximena, malou’s daughter. Wanted to give an update on my moms conditions. On December 14, my mom had a double mastectomy and they removed her tumors. Doctors exact words were “you do not have cancer. When my mom went in for a check up- we unfortunately received bad news. As of now my mom will have to continue with her chemotherapy and radiation. After some exams DR’s believe her cancer has spread to her bones, in her neck and shoulder area. So it is now categorized as stage 4. Since it’s the beginning of the year, the copay goes back to $0, meaning we have to pay everything out of pocket until we reach a certain amount, and insurance can start covering the medical bills. My mom is a single mother of my brother and I, and due to her cancer, she hasn’t been able to work much, and my brother and I have been trying to bring as much money as we can home. Any financial help and prayers are appreciated. We know and we believe in a God who heals and this is only a set-back.
Thank you all so much in advance! God bless you all!!




UPDATE!!!
Two days after DMX - pain isn’t bad. I’m taking Tramadol every 6 hours. I can take care of myself more than I thought I would be able to. Arms and shoulders hurt when I try to raise my arms over my head. I’m trying to go for short walks throughout the day. I’ve been sleeping and eating normally. My throat hurts a little from the tube being down there during surgery. My first post op visit will be Friday. Drains are leaking good and I have three
Prayers are working amazingly cause I have little pain.. Thank you all so much..
