On the night of September 12th, our world changed. My youngest daughter, Malaya, was admitted to the hospital. After several tests, doctors discovered a 26cm tumor, which has been confirmed as cancerous.

Malaya’s surgery was on October 1st to successfully remove the tumor. As you can imagine, this is a deeply emotional and overwhelming time for our family. We are asking for your prayers and support—for Malaya’s complete healing, for strength and peace for her siblings and me, for wisdom and guidance for her medical team, and for everyone who will be walking alongside her through this journey.

In order to care for Malaya during and after surgery, I will be taking a temporary leave from work. While I’m incredibly grateful to be able to focus on her recovery, this also means a significant financial strain as I continue to cover monthly bills and living expenses during this time.

To help bridge this gap, I’ve created a GoFundMe. Any amount you’re able to give—no donation is too small—will help ensure I can be fully present for Malaya while keeping our household stable. Your love, prayers, and generosity mean more than words can express.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing with us.
