Support Ashley (Orvin) Shepherd's Battle with Cancer

Donation protected
Dear Friends and Family,

We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts but hopeful spirits to support a truly incredible woman—my sister-in-law, Ashley Orvin Shepherd. Over the past months, Ashley has faced an unimaginable battle with colon cancer, a relentless adversary that has now spread to the muscle of her hip. This has led to the need for an exceptionally complex surgery to remove the tumor, a procedure that brings with it significant risks and challenges.

Ashley has always been a beacon of light and positivity. Even amid this grueling journey, she strives to be the same "Before Cancer Ashley"—the compassionate, energetic, and always-giving person we all know and love. Her boundless energy, once a defining trait, now often leaves her bedridden, battling pain, nausea, and the exhausting side effects of aggressive treatments.

Despite these hardships, Ashley continues to display remarkable strength and grace. She is passionate about exercise, running, and hiking, though her cancer now imposes limits that deeply frustrate her. She remains a source of joy with her infectious laughter, playful spirit, and love for baking—whether it’s cakes, cookies, or any sweet treat she can share with others. Her love for candy and sweets is a small, sweet joy she clings to in these trying times.

Ashley has endured rounds of radiation, endured the harshest of chemotherapies, and is now facing financial stress and emotional strain as she approaches this critical surgery. The toll of the disease and the intense treatments has been immense, and her family is rallying around her with unwavering support.

We are setting up this GoFundMe campaign to alleviate some of the financial burdens associated with Ashley’s treatment and recovery. Your generous contributions will help cover medical expenses, support her family during this challenging time, and allow Ashley to focus on what truly matters—her recovery and her cherished moments with loved ones.

Ashley’s courage and faith in the face of this brutal disease are nothing short of inspiring. She battles on with every ounce of strength she has, and with your support, we hope to give her a fighting chance to overcome this enemy.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign. Your support means the world to us and to Ashley, and it will make a profound difference in her journey toward recovery.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and generosity.
