<div>Hi All,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>Its Trish here!</em></strong> <em>I need each of your help desperately</em>. As many of you know, I am battling a life-threatening cancer. I have currently been diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma- Pancreatic Cancer Stage 3. I currently have a tumor on the head of my pancreas that has occluded my main arteries. I have had 7 rounds of intense chemotherapy and 5 high beam proton radiation therapy. Right now, we are in a waiting game to let the radiation continue to do its work inside my body and will go back for a CT scan in a couple of weeks to review for Surgery. So, in about 8 weeks I could potentially be getting this sucker removed (FINALLY!!!!). After healing and recovery of surgery, if all goes well, I will then get back on the chemo train to complete another 7 rounds to ensure cancer cells are not growing anywhere else. This has been a very HARD and debilitating ride, to say the least. I have pretty much experienced many side effects from all treatments and been in the bed off/on for days. However, when I am feeling well, I do my best to get up and get out and enjoy what the Lord has made!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So, to get to my huge concern and request for your help- I started to get sick back in April 2023. I had to go on FMLA from work due to feeling terrible and the stress all was playing on me mentally. The sickness continued to progress with ER visits until I finally realized I was dealing with the Demon called CANCER! Because of being out of work and having no additional benefits from work (short term disability, etc.). I was not bringing any income in. My hubby Derick was/is working, but has reduced his hours down to 20, if that, given the complexity of my care and the assistance needed from him as my caregiver and our 4 children- as LIFE keeps a moving.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A little before all this went down, we had made a decision to accept this program call stay/sell or stay/buyback program for our home that we now realize was the worst mistake we could make and a scam at that.
</div>
<div>Because we accepted this program, we are now at the mercy of them and not our mortgage company. Sad to say, with our payments being behind, they are now trying to take us to court and evict us. This home we have lived in for almost 10 years. This is my littles (Bryson/Lily's) childhood home and of course Hannah's and Emma's main home as well. I cannot fathom at this point having to pack up and leave when battling CANCER, much less where will we go. That is just way too much for me to even process and has led to an extreme depressive state feeling as though I am a huge failure to my children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So, I come humbly to each of you, to ask for anything that you can donate to help us get our past due bill down and back on track with our rent payments, so that I am able to potentially try to repurchase our home and stay until the kiddos are grown as expected. This is NOT something I wanted to come ask for help for, as you all have been so kind with the prayers and support already, BUT I am at the end of all I can do for this. Any amount you could help donate, even if just a dollar or 5, will help us meet our goal and get back in a place where I do not feel my whole world is crashing down on me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>From one mother to another- </em>please help me not feel like the biggest failure to my children.
</div>
<div><em>From one friend to another- </em>thank you for being a shining star in my life, and I hope one day I can/will do the same for you!
</div>
<div><em>From one person to another-</em> I appreciate each of your kindness and time even just reading this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>If you are able to help, wonderful and so appreciated. If you cannot, if you could certainly share with your family and friends to get the word out there, that would be most helpful too!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I know God is good and has our plan in place for our future. I have prayed for days about whether to make this go fund me or not, as I did not want to get ridiculed or frowned upon. However, God ensured me through prayer that its okay to ask for help when we are at our lowest and to just be humble within his readings as the lessons and learnings are all there.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>Thank each of you, so very much for being a shining star, kind person, and beautiful soul within my life and for my family. We are forever grateful. I will beat this Cancers bootie and when I do, man what a day that will be. I am strong, I am worthy, and I can do it!</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>Much love to all and wishing you a beautiful day! Remember God loves you and so do we :)</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>the kindest regards, </em></strong>
</div>
<div><strong><em>Tricia and the family &lt;3</em></strong>
