Stand with Tamika Against Cancer

Donation protected
Hey, it's Jordyn, Tamika Kelly's daughter! I am creating this GoFundMe account to help my mother pay her insurance deductible for her next stem cell transplant. You only get 2 in a lifetime, and we are working on her second one.

My mother has been battling Multiple Myeloma Cancer since May 7th, 2021. She had her first stem cell transplant on November 2nd, 2021. Unfortunately, her cancer returned in December 2024 and is spreading throughout her body. Multiple Myeloma is a rare blood cancer that affects your bones, causing small holes and fractures, which leads to excruciating pain. I have personally witnessed my mother attend numerous doctor's appointments, seen her cry because of the pain, and watched the chemo completely wear her down. Yet, she still keeps her spirits high and always wants to help others.

My mother has been in the mental health field since 1998 as direct care and is currently a program manager. She maintains 10 group homes and oversees 25-30 staff. Tamika takes pride in her work and is so selfless when it comes to her clients; her patience is unmatched, and her love is ever-flowing.

My mother loves her family ,friends & New Edition tremendously (She dreams to be on stage with them lol )She has never missed a birthday, holiday, or family function. She loves to see us in matching clothes, decorate for us, and create crazy games for us to enjoy as a unit. My mother is the light of this family, and it's just time for her to receive some much-needed help. Thank you all in advance for the prayers, donations, phone calls, and visits.

Love, Jordyn B.
