Support Caroline’s Fight Against Sarcoma

On behalf of my sister, Caroline, I’m writing to share a sorrowful and unexpected update.

Caroline was recently diagnosed with Round Cell Sarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer. The tumor, which involves most of her scapula, was discovered following months of shoulder pain she initially believed was just a strain.

If you know my sister, you know she’s deeply caring—and her humor is a constant surprise that lightens every room. She’s down to earth and has a way of effortlessly connecting with just about anyone—whether it’s an old friend or a total stranger. As a hardworking single mother, devoted friend, loving daughter, and sister, she shows up for the people she loves with quiet strength and compassion. Her laugh fills a room, and her warmth stays with you.

Her incredible strength is guiding her as she begins treatment at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Her treatment plan includes:

Ways to Help

Caroline has built a life rooted in love, hard work, and faith. She has poured everything into creating a happy, stable life for herself and her son, Valentino, who we love very much. This diagnosis has brought challenges we never could have anticipated.

Your support will help cover medical expenses not covered by insurance, as well as travel and accommodations in Houston during treatment and follow-up care. It will also provide childcare for Valentino while Caroline is away or recovering.

Whether you’re able to give, pray, or simply share her story, we are deeply grateful. Every bit of support fuels her strength to keep moving forward.

Thank you for standing with her.

With love,

Fern
