Help Melissa fight breast cancer!

Donation protected
We’re raising funds for our best friends Melissa and Nick. In February of this year, they had their world turned upside down when Melissa was diagnosed with breast cancer at 29 years old. Just less than 2 months before the diagnosis, Melissa and Nick had celebrated their marriage, were eagerly planning to start a family, and were getting ready to start the rest of their lives together.

There are no words to ever describe how great of a person Melissa is. She embodies love, happiness, and positivity. Whether she is a family member, friend, or acquaintance, she is the type of person who would drop whatever she was doing to help anyone or any animal in need. Melissa also dedicates her work and passion towards the autism spectrum community, and is a huge advocate in believing in helping one another. She believes in helping those less fortunate and can make easily brighten up someone's day.

She is getting ready to undergo cancer treatment which includes surgery, radiation, as well as chemotherapy. They had to break the lease from their new apartment to accommodate a more feasible living accommodation. And she will also need to have fertility treatment to freeze eggs/embryos before she starts chemotherapy. On top of the added cost of treatments, she will be unable to work for a period of time.

Our girl is going to need all her strength and focus to kick cancer in the ass so we are hoping to relieve some financial pressure during this time. Any contribution to support Melissa and Nick through this financial strain will make a difference in their lives and the Pascual / Schwartz family would be forever grateful.

All donations will go directly to Melissa and Nick to help cover the additional expense of cancer treatment and income loss. If you are unable to donate, please feel free to leave a supportive message and share this friends and family.

Let’s get through this together!
