Hi my name is Deb Snow, and I have been friends and colleagues with Shanda "Panda" Pruitt for over 15 years. Shanda has been battling breast cancer since 2023. Shanda has managed to maintain her positive spirit despite the various treatments she has explored during her healing journey. From holistic, experimental, to radiation, she has never lost her faith. Alongside her parents, they have shouldered the majority of these costs/expenses of this battle out of pocket. This includes most her conventional medical treatments, flights and naturopathic remedies.

Seldom do you meet a person that is genuine, never wavering in their faith, full of joy, and kindness. Her laugh is infectious and her light has helped brighten the path of others. For those of us that who are blessed to have crossed paths with her, this describes our friend Shanda (aka Panda). Let us all chip in and help achieve her goal. She has selflessly given to our community and others and now we are asking for those that are able to help cover past and ongoing medical bills, and natural supplements. Please help Shanda continue in her fight! Let's give back to someone who has always given so much.

Shanda's Journey:

I was diagnosed spring of 2023 but knew something was wrong a few months before. Over the past two years I have tried conventional, natural and trial treatments, all at tremendous cost. While these treatments have helped reduce my tumor, they have not successfully removed it. Unfortunately, the cancer has now spread to other organs and bones. When I realized the pain I was feeling was leading to death, I asked God to lead me to anything that would make me live and he led me to radiation therapy through a wonderful medical oncologist and radiation oncologist who both are reasons I am alive right now. I currently have help with some medical assistance but cannot get a consistent full time job due to my treatments which cost over $20,000 per month! Due to expenses, I have to skip natural healing treatments which help me continue to feel my best during this battle.

If you are able, I would love your financial support in addition to your prayers! I am currently going through treatments taking every day with joy of being alive! Cancer will not win this battle for the victory is mine through the prayers and support of all of my friends, family and former Slope coworkers! Through your help and God's I am an overcomer!
