Five years ago, Emily lost her husband unexpectedly and became the sole parent to their young son. Now, she is facing another life-altering challenge: a stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis. Emily will be undergoing aggressive treatment, including chemotherapy, radiation, and a double mastectomy, followed by long-term hormone therapy for years to come. The financial burden of medical bills, treatments, and daily expenses is already beginning to add up. As a single mom, we want her focus to be on healing and being there for her 7-year-old son—not worrying about how to manage the growing costs of care.

Donations will help cover urgent, day-to-day needs like medical co-pays, medications, transportation to and from treatments, childcare, and time away from work. Emily is the most thoughtful, selfless, loving, and supportive mother, friend, daughter, sister, and aunt who deserves the world. We are asking our community to come together to help support Emily during this extremely difficult time. Every donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward her care and help ease the financial stress so she can focus on what matters most: her health and her son. If you’re not able to give, sharing this page and keeping her in your thoughts and prayers means just as much. Thank you for showing up with love, generosity, and support during a time when it’s needed most.
