Lidia Levchenko, my mother, has always been a pillar of strength and compassion in our family and community. She was recently diagnosed with stage 3 rectal adenocarcinoma, and is about to begin aggressive radiation, chemotherapy, and surgeries. This diagnosis has brought unexpected challenges, and we are doing everything we can to support her through this difficult time.

Lidia has spent her life caring for others, raising eight children and nurturing 57 grandchildren. Her home is always open, filled with warmth, meals, and prayers for anyone in need. She is a Christian prayer warrior, and her faith has been a source of comfort for so many. She loves vegetable gardening and raising chickens and sheep, finding joy in the simple things and sharing that joy with others. Now, as she faces this health crisis, we want to give back to her for all the love and support she has given us and our community.

The funds raised will help cover medical bills, travel for treatments, and daily living expenses, as my parents are living off minimal social security. Any support you can offer will be a blessing to Lidia as she begins this journey. Thank you for your prayers, kindness, and generosity.
