As most of you know, my mother has been battling an aggressive form of breast cancer (triple negative breast cancer) that also spread to her lymph nodes since March of 2020. Within days of her diagnosis, my mom began the fight of her life. She has undergone a double radical mastectomy, radiation treatments, and has been receiving chemotherapy for the last two and a half years straight. The mental, physical, emotional and financial burden this awful disease has placed on my mom is absolutely unfathomable. Unfortunately even after years of non-stop treatment, my mom has a long fight ahead of her. Recent scans show the cancer has spread once again. She will continue to receive chemotherapy 3 times a month and will be receiving treatment on her “off week” to keep her stable enough in order to tolerate the amount and type of chemo she needs. My mom has spent 3-4+ days per week, every single week, for the last two and a half years at the cancer center or hospital receiving life saving treatment.
I am heartbroken and sickened that my mother is still facing this awful awful disease and would love to do anything and everything possible to ease the burden. If you are able, any donation or sharing this fundraiser would be greatly appreciated and go a long way in helping my mom continue this fight. I am blocking my mom from this post and hope to keep this fundraiser a secret.
To know my mom is to love her. I am one of many to witness her absolute admirable amount of strength and perseverance to push through it ALL. I continue to ask for your prayers for my moms health and to have the mental and physical strength to fight this awful disease.
