Support Olivia Gaines (Bell) in Her Fight Against Breast Cancer
This year, at the young age of 32, Olivia Gaines (Bell) was diagnosed with Stage 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Olivia is a loving wife, a devoted mom of three, a caring daughter, a supportive sister, and a passionate art teacher who has dedicated her life to educating children. She finds immense joy in expressing herself through art and sharing that love with her students.
If you’ve had the privilege of knowing Olivia, you know she exudes strength, determination, and an unwavering positive spirit. In May of this year, she discovered a lump in her breast. Due to breastfeeding, it was initially thought to be a clogged duct. However, Olivia took the proactive step to consult her doctor for scans and tests, which led to the shocking diagnosis.
Since that moment, Olivia’s world has been turned upside down. She began chemotherapy and immunotherapy just this month, and after only one treatment, she has already faced some unfortunate side effects. Each day is a challenge, but Olivia continues to persevere, fighting with everything she has for her family and the goal of seeing her children grow up.
Olivia is incredibly strong, but the road ahead is long and difficult. She will undergo several months of chemo and immunotherapy, followed by surgery to remove the cancer, along with various medications, hospital visits, and countless other treatments. On top of this, she will be taking significant unpaid time off work for her treatments and recovery.
As her family, we are asking for your help to support Olivia through this fight. Any donations will go towards her medical treatments, food, and other unforeseen expenses that arise during this difficult journey. Your generosity will help ease the financial burden on her and her family, allowing Olivia to focus fully on her recovery.
