Hi, my name is Lester, and I am Donata's husband.

I come to you with a heavy heart as I start this GoFundMe campaign for my wife, Donata, who has been diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer. We recently had a PET scan, which revealed that the cancer has spread to her lungs as well. When I spoke with her doctor, I was faced with the difficult truth that it is incurable. Hearing such words is incredibly challenging, and I want to emphasize that they do not diminish the strength and love my wife brings to our family. Donata is not just my best friend; she is my confidante and the heart of our family. As an amazing mother to our four children and a devoted grandmother to our three grandchildren, her presence means the world to us. This journey has been surreal and life-altering, and we feel the weight of uncertainty. In the face of this struggle, I hold onto hope, love, and faith. However, the financial burden of fighting cancer is daunting. Even with insurance, the costs can feel overwhelming. That’s why we are reaching out for your support. Whether through a donation, thoughts, or prayers. From the depths of our hearts, we are grateful for your kindness and support during this challenging time. Thank you for standing with us.
