Let’s help Jessica while she fights cancer

Donation protected
This is my sister Jessica, her beautiful family and why they need your help.

In November 2020 as Jessica was the getting ready to bring her 2nd beautiful baby girl into the world, her world was shattered. At 8 months pregnant, she was told that her daughter Eleanor had a super rare heart condition and was stillborn. The pain of losing a child is unimaginable, yet Jessica knew that one day she would try again to have another baby. Then, one year later Jessica suffered a mini stroke and that dream was once again put on hold as Jessica was also diagnosed with a heart condition. which will require major surgery, but that will now need to be put on hold also.

What Jessica has already been through is more than most could handle and she will now have to fight another battle. At the young age of just 27, Jessica has been diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. With a tumor that has grown 5x the size in just 2 months, Jessica will very quickly be undergoing chemo treatments to shrink the tumor and then will have surgery to have it removed.

Jessica, a newly wed of just 3 months, along with her beautiful family will once again need to put their dreams of adding to their family on hold until Jessica kicks cancers ass! Because of the cancer, Jessica’s eggs will need to be frozen as soon as possible to give her a chance to have more children when the fight is over. The cost of freezing eggs and then IVF down the road are significant, and right now time is of the essence to get the process started.

I am asking you to please donate. Please help us help Jessica relieve some of the financial burden that cancer will have on her family while she fights cancer, while she raises her beautiful daughter Emilia and help give her hope for one day making her dream of expanding her family a reality.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
