Light the Way: Support Adrienne Through Her Cancer Journey
Donation protected
At the end of January, Adrienne was in the midst of a transformational season in her life. She had recently moved, intentionally prioritizing her physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being. Her time was filled with running, lifting, planning for travel, and deep self-reflection through therapy. Additionally, she had recently launched her own coaching business, ready to help others step into their own healing and growth.
Life was beginning to align in beautiful ways. Seemingly out of nowhere, Adrienne discovered a painful lump in her side. Within days, she was faced with an unimaginable reality: a diagnosis of advanced stage colon cancer. Within another week, she had begun chemotherapy.
Adrienne’s treatment journey has already been marked by several unexpected and difficult challenges. Through it all, she’s remained grounded in her spirituality and inner strength—holding onto a positive mindset and continuing to focus on her personal growth. Despite the circumstances, she still shows up for her coaching clients and makes quality time with her family a top priority, doing her best to maintain a sense of normalcy.
That being said, a diagnosis like this inevitably brings disruption—to routines, to dreams, and especially to finances. Adrienne’s journey is only just beginning. In the coming months, Adrienne will continue chemotherapy and undergo surgery; with many unknowns still unfolding.
Unfortunately, as many know, health insurance can be frustratingly unpredictable—especially in today’s healthcare system. While our family is doing what we can to manage the mounting uncovered medical bills, prescription costs, and day-to-day living expenses; the financial strain is quickly becoming overwhelming.
We are asking for your help as Adrienne continues on this journey—one that she never could have anticipated but is meeting with incredible strength and grace. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help ease the financial burden, allowing her to focus fully on healing. If you're unable to give at this time, please consider sharing this page, keeping Adrienne in your thoughts and prayers. Your support means more than words can express, and we are deeply grateful to have you in her corner.
Together, we can help carry her through this chapter.
