I rewrote my bio, so if you’re new here you can read everything from beginning or skip to the bottom, I don’t mind lol if you’ve been around and know my story I’m adding in the newest news right past the ribbons and hearts
Hi, I’m Mallory, I’m 31 and just a little after my 28th birthday I found out I was pregnant and that I had stage 3 invasive duct so carcinoma er/pr+ breast cancer, BRCA2+ and recently found out i also have the PIC3 gene, after months of extensive ultrasounds, mammogram, biopsies and more. (Also on top of all the pregnancy appointments and high risk Dr appointments from Wytheville to Roanoke 3x a week or more) I continued my pregnancy even though I was advised to abort and take care of myself. I underwent bilateral mastectomy, 18 lymph nodes removed and 14 positive with cancer, I had all clear margins but a small place less than a cm, no reconstruction, a port surgery and four rounds of ‘AC’ chemo (Adriamycin and cytoxan) then I delivered a healthy 5.8lb (a day before my 29th birthday yay) white headed (now a fiery red head) baby girl. She stayed in Roanoke memorial for 11 days with a little CPAP help, slight body temp issues and jaundice but mostly not knowing how to eat, suck and swallow on her own. But, not bad to be born at 35 weeks ☺️ on her 10th day there, I had to leave my baby in Roanoke and drive home 1.5 hours to sleep and get up and have my 1st of 12 doses of taxol chemotherapy and after that 12 weeks, I then had 7 weeks of radiation treatments. I had to do the deep breathing techniques to try and make a gap between my heart and chest plate since I’m young we didn’t want to damage my heart. I then was cleared, I rang that bell and was so proud I kicked cancers a$$ and was ready for reconstruction and to get on with my life. August 2021, only 6 months later I had new symptoms and a lot of pain in my back and legs, they did a CT which showed I had now become stage 4 with metastatic breast cancer to bones. It was mostly in the spine, pelvis and multiple compressed discs and fractures along my spine. Talk about heart break. I couldn’t get a year anniversary? Whatever. I knew I was tough, I knew I could handle it if I handle the first 1.5 years with a pregnancy and then newborn and Covid nonsense to where I couldn’t have anyone with me which was so scary and virtual schooling for my other 3 kids. I started treatment for that and made it to this past few months and had started having new symptoms and getting dizzy, falling, feeling a pressure in my head ringing in my ears, etc.

They did another brain MRI that confirmed I have it now in the meninges of the brain. Now this isn’t just, let’s treat it you’ll be fine news. This is bad, very bad news. They don’t usually see months of life after this DX and rarely have seen a year. I have 4 small kids ages 12, 10, 6 and 2, they need their mama and I’m trying out a new medicine that isn’t covered through insurance and it’s going to be pricey, about 350 a month give or take. Please, if you have a $1, $5, whatever amount extra and you feel like being a decent human, please help me. This year my family went into 11k in debt. I have been a SAHM for a decade and my husband works but this economy is awful and when you have to buy life saving meds that are ridiculously expensive and you’re adding in more it’s going to hurt us. Plus I am going to have to travel 6 hour round trips to UVA every two weeks for chemo, and stay for a week for radiation so this will help fund that as well. So if you can find it in your heart to give you’re more than appreciated.
Due to GoFundMe taking fees, I’ve listed other ways you can help. That way it all goes to me and not a website. I understand if you do not want to do the other options. Thank you in and advance and god bless
