As many of you know, Lori was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma in February 2023. In April, doctors discovered another mass on her spine. Since her initial diagnosis, she has undergone three spinal surgeries to remove tumors, received radiation treatment three times, and is now starting her second round of chemotherapy. During her second surgery, she experienced complications when a nerve was nicked while removing a tumor. This has resulted in the loss of feeling in her foot and severe intermittent nerve pain.

Working during this challenging time has become increasingly difficult for her. To make matters worse, the Social Security Administration canceled her disability benefits this month. Lori is actively working to appeal this decision while continuing to work as much as her body can handle. She started her chemotherapy today, which involves six rounds, administered five days a week, every three weeks.

The stress of pushing herself to work and keep up with bills is something I’d like to help relieve for her. Lori is one of the hardest-working, caring, and supportive individuals I know. She has been through so much in the past few years, yet she never asks for help and pushes through for her six kids every day. Lori will keep fighting with everything she has, and I hope that even the smallest donation can help her just a little bit. Thank you for taking the time to read, and I know Lori appreciates everyone's love & support.
