Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your help and support for someone who means so much to me—my dear friend Ana.

Ana has been part of my life for over 20 years. She was my husband’s childhood friend, and through the years, she became my soul-sister and one of the most cherished people in my life. Her heart is huge—always putting others first, always showing up for those she loves.

Now she needs us.

Ana was recently diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)—a rare and serious blood disorder that affects the bone marrow and can develop into leukemia. This diagnosis has turned her world upside down. The road ahead is uncertain and overwhelming, filled with medical treatments, hospital visits, and the possibility of a bone marrow transplant.

But what hasn’t changed is Ana’s incredible strength—and her deep, unwavering love for her family.

She is a devoted mother whose children are her entire world, and a loving, selfless wife who draws her strength from the bond she shares with her husband. Even in the face of fear and pain, her thoughts are always with them—how to stay strong for them, how to keep going for them.

This GoFundMe is to help ease some of the heavy burden Ana and her family are carrying right now. The funds will go toward:

• Ongoing medical treatment and hospital costs

• Medication and special care not covered by insurance

• Travel expenses to and from specialists

• Basic household needs and support while Ana focuses on recovery

No amount is too small. Every donation, every share, every word of encouragement brings us one step closer to helping Ana focus on what matters most—healing and staying strong for the people she loves so fiercely.

Thank you for standing with her. For your love, your prayers, and your kindness.

With all my heart,

Deydamia Blanco
