Erin is known for being an amazing wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and nurse! She is a rockstar to many and often gives her whole heart to caring for those she loves. Unfortunately, her life was forever changed in June when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Fortunately, she has a rockstar team to support her, but as one can imagine, the medical bills are piling up quickly. This gofund account has been set up solely to support Erin, Mike and Avery during this challenging time. Please feel free to contact me directly if you wish to donate outside of the gofundme account.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and support for Erin as she kicks cancer to the curb!

Update from Erin June 2022:

In early May, I finally acted on a lump that I had been feeling in my left breast. This past Friday, after many sleepless nights and tests, my doctor finally confirmed what I already suspected-that I have breast cancer. Seriously, I NEVER thought that I would say those words. Right now we are still waiting on final pathology but we do know that it is invasive lobular carcinoma. Mike and I met with the doctor today to discuss next steps. Until we get the rest of the markers, final treatment plan is still in the works but the next few weeks are going to be filled with multiple doctor visits leading up to surgery. Surgeon assured us it is treatable and curable and that we caught it early (yay nurse erin for actually going to get checked…well in reality my husband made me). However, this totally sucks balls, like big time. Being diagnosed with cancer is hard to explain. It is very personal and lonely, even though you are surrounded by people who love you. I know it is treatable-but I am also a nurse, which in this case was a curse and caused more anxiety as I researched everything leading up to my diagnosis. My doctor actually wouldn’t tell me my cancer type Friday because she knew I would spend all weekend researching. Ha! She knows me too well already. Luckily, I have the most amazing friends and family who have helped more than they already know, just by being a text or phone call away. The last few weeks have been stressful just not knowing and I am so glad that I do finally know. The hardest part is going to be explaining it to Avery-but she is a bad-ass like her momma and will help me kick cancer’s butt! I will update as I know more.
