Hi, my name is Kelsey, and I’m creating this GoFundMe for my sister Ali—someone whose laughter has always been the brightest (and loudest) sound in any room.

A few weeks ago, our world turned upside down when Ali was diagnosed with Primary Mediastinal B Cell Lymphoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer. She will soon start receiving treatment at Mayo Clinic, facing multiple rounds of chemotherapy and radiation. Ali has had amazing strength and humor through this diagnosis.

If you know Ali, you know she’s a force. She’s a comedian who finds a way to laugh even when things are hard. She’s the friend who checks on everyone else, the sister who shows up when you need her, and the kind of person who gives more than she ever asks for.

Right now, she needs us.

Ali’s cancer journey will mean weekly overnight hospital stays, countless trips to Mayo Clinic, time away from work, and the heavy weight of medical expenses piling up alongside the physical and emotional toll of treatment. Her husband, Jay, will also be stepping away from work to be by her side during this critical time—offering support, love, and care as they face this battle together. But that means two incomes paused during one of the hardest seasons of their lives.

We’re asking for your help to ease that burden—so Ali and Jay can focus on healing, not on finances.

Your donation will go directly toward:

• Travel and lodging during treatment

• Time off work and lost income for both Ali and Jay

• Medical expenses not fully covered by insurance

• Any unexpected costs that arise during her fight

This road is long and incredibly hard, but Ali isn’t walking it alone. She has an army of friends, family, and supporters behind her—and if you’re reading this, we hope you’ll join that circle of love.

Whether you’re able to donate or simply share this page, it means the world to us. From the bottom of our hearts—thank you.

With love and gratitude,

Kelsey & Ali’s Family
