Hello dear friends. My name is Mercedes and I'm asking you for a little help. In September 2025 I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer. I've since gone through a double mastectomy surgery and by April 7, 2026 I will have completed a total of 16 chemotherapy infusions. I still have radiation and hormone therapy to follow. All of this has been quiet a journey. I'm very happy with my results so far but it has taken a lot out of me. These are tough times and this medical treatment has made it tougher. I am grateful to anything you can contribute, even just passing this along to friends. My creative work has been on pause but I have plans for an art show in Malibu, CA in few months. I'm working on art as a way to say thank you for your help.
