Help Ally Fight Stage Four Breast Cancer

UPDATE:

We wanted to thank you all again so much for your love and support and share an update. 




Ally just finished her rounds of chemotherapy and radiation. PET scan results have revealed she has triple negative breast cancer, stage four, with voluminous tumors in her breast, liver, and bone metastases. The next steps in regards to her treatment plan going forward are not solidified yet, but spinal surgery is very likely to be the next step. 




We are looking into more financially viable options such as bringing her to the U.S or Europe, but are trying to honor her wishes of being home with her family and baby boy.




We have received so much love and support already and are so grateful. A lot of my friends are still asking how they can help since the funds you have all so generously donated are quickly running out. This fundraiser is still open for donations. If you can share, or just say a prayer, we would be so grateful.

LOVE, 
KATHLEEN

 

 

As few of you know, my sister, Ally Hacquebart, 36 years old, was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer this past week… She has two precious girls ages 11 and 12, and a baby boy on the way…

 

She is currently 7 months pregnant. She was brought into the hospital after experiencing unbearable back pain throughout her pregnancy. Further testing discovered a cancerous tumor in her breast which has very quickly metastasized to her liver and bones.

 

Her recent MRI results have revealed that she now has two compression fractures in her spinal cord. This is critical. Any movement in this lesion will produce spinal cord section, this means that she is at risk of becoming paralyzed. We are having to hold her chemo therapy treatments that were scheduled to start today as she may have to undergo an emergency surgery which can put her and her baby’s life at risk. Ally does not have health insurance, she will be needing surgery and ongoing chemo therapy treatments in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

 

Stage four cancer is incurable, however, with the right treatment she can and will fight to live a long life and be there for her girls and incoming baby boy, this is all she wants.

 

This is a very delicate and time sensitive situation. Her life has changed in an instant, we are all incredibly devastated. We ask for your love and support as we work to save their lives.



Como pocos de ustedes saben, mi hermana, Ally Hacquebart, de 36 años, fue diagnosticada con cáncer de mama en etapa cuatro la semana pasada ... Tiene dos preciosas niñas de 11 y 12 años, y un bebé en camino ...

Actualmente está embarazada de 7 meses. Fue llevada al hospital después de experimentar un dolor de espalda insoportable durante todo el embarazo. Más pruebas descubrieron un tumor canceroso en su seno que rápidamente hizo metástasis en su hígado y huesos.

Los resultados de su resonancia magnética han revelado que ahora tiene dos fracturas por compresión en la médula espinal. Esto es fundamental. Cualquier movimiento en esta lesión producirá un corte de la médula espinal, esto significa que está en riesgo de quedar paralizada. Tenemos que suspender sus tratamientos de quimioterapia que estaban programados para comenzar hoy, ya que es posible que deba someterse a una cirugía de emergencia que puede poner en riesgo su vida y la de su bebé. Ally no tiene seguro médico, necesitará cirugía y tratamientos continuos de quimioterapia en Puerto Vallarta, México.

El cáncer en etapa cuatro es incurable, sin embargo, con el tratamiento adecuado, ella puede y va a luchar para vivir una vida larga y estar allí para sus hijas y su bebé recién nacido, esto es todo lo que quiere.

Esta es una situación muy delicada y urgente. Su vida ha cambiado en un instante, todos estamos increíblemente devastados. Pedimos su amor y apoyo mientras trabajamos para salvar sus vidas.
