Hello Family and Friends of our Lovely Robyn Coffin. As many of you may know, Robyn has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Terrible news. The good news – she has a crack team at the hospital organizing and planning her surgery and aftercare and recovery. The great news – Robyn’s adoring husband Grant and supportive friends will be wonderful caregivers. And to add to that news – Robyn has a really big village and she and Grant are calling on that village to help out. This is NOT an easy ask for Robyn or Grant, but they have been convinced this is the best way ensure a stress-free journey from surgery to aftercare to recovery.

So, here are the facts that we know:

As of now, on 12/3/26 Robyn will undergo a right partial mastectomy with magseed localization. Radiation will follow. Robyn has a pre-op visit on 11/24/26. If that visit results in affirming the right partial mastectomy, Robyn is expecting to be out of work for 3 weeks. If a full mastectomy is required, Robyn’s time off work will increase quite a bit, as the surgery is much more extensive.

When Robyn doesn’t work, she doesn’t get paid. So, this go fund me is not only to fill in the gaps that insurance will surely leave, but also to help sustain Robyn and Grant while Robyn is off work. Thank goodness they have insurance, but let’s not get cocky – let’s give them a nest egg because we know there will be surprises. We know that with insurance the surgery and hospital bill will amount to $40k. Because the surgery is hard upon, this amount is most urgent. The balance is for said surprises: a longer recovery period (see not working), medicine off the plan or not fully covered, or whatever is thrown at them.

So, Village – thank you in advance for embracing Robyn with love and support.

We’ve got her!

Robyn and Grant send you their love and gratitude.
