My name is Lily Marion, and my family and I are starting this GoFundMe to support the Matus family. They are going through an extremely hard time (read below) and we are reaching out for your love and support. Let's step up as a community to help support them through this difficult journey. All donations will go directly to supporting the Matus family with their medical and living expenses.

Hi everyone,

We’re reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits. Gabriella Matus has been an absolute warrior and has been battling cancer for over four years now, showing incredible strength and grace through it all. Even during the toughest times, she’s kept fighting, smiling, and showing up for the people she loves.

Lately, things have taken a difficult turn. She’s been in the hospital for the past two weeks dealing with serious and unexplained stomach complications. She tried to come home once, but unfortunately, the issues returned, and she had to be readmitted. Despite all the testing, doctors still haven’t been able to figure out exactly what’s wrong, and the uncertainty has been incredibly hard. At this point, we don’t know what the future holds; all we can ask for is love and support from anyone able.

Every little bit goes a long way to help support Gabriella, Lance, and their two boys, Cash and Kade, as they navigate this incredibly difficult time. Lance has had to take time off work to be by Gabby's side, and with the added financial strain of medical expenses and supporting two college students, any amount of support would make a difference. Sharing this and keeping Gabriella in your thoughts and prayers means the world to us.

Thank you all for your continued love, kindness, and support.

We’re endlessly grateful.

Best, Matus Family
