Support for Maria’s Healing Journey

Our beautiful Maria, just 32 years old, recently received devastating news that has deeply affected all of us. After seeking medical attention for ongoing stomach pain, doctors discovered a mass in her colon that has sadly spread to both her liver and lungs. Following a series of tests, she has been officially diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer.

Maria has already undergone surgery to remove the mass from her colon and is now under the care of the BC Cancer Society. She will be starting chemotherapy treatments in the coming days as she begins this incredibly difficult journey.

Maria is the kindest, sweetest soul you could ever meet. She’s a devoted mother, raising her two beautiful children as well as two beautiful children of her partner, Chanton. Her love knows no bounds. Maria has been passionate about modeling, she poured her heart into it and built an incredible portfolio over the years. Maria is a very passionate entrepreneur who built her very own dog grooming business from the ground up! Her connection with animals is something special, rooted in her genuine, nurturing spirit.

Over the past few years, Maria has walked a courageous path of healing. She’s been sober for several years and has overcome immense personal loss. Through it all, she has remained committed to her mental, spiritual, and physical health. Her resilience is inspiring to everyone who knows her.

Now, as she begins this difficult journey with her health, we want to be there for her the way she has always been there for others. We’re coming together as family, friends, and community to help alleviate some of the financial stress that comes with this kind of news, so Maria can focus on what matters most: healing, being present for her children, and taking this next step surrounded by support and love.

Any amount you’re able to give, big or small, will go directly toward Maria’s living expenses, travel to and from appointments, treatments, and helping her maintain stability for her kids during this incredibly challenging time.

Let’s show Maria she’s not alone. Let’s lift her up the way she’s lifted so many of us. Please donate if you can, share this fundraiser, and keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

With love and gratitude,

Taylor Duncan / Family of Maria
