Supporting My Children Through the Hardest Journey of Our Lives
My name is Jilleena Bailey, and I am the proud mother of incredible children, all girls. Today, I write this with a heart overflowing with love, and yet heavy with pain. I have been fighting stage 4 breast cancer for over a year, enduring chemotherapy and treatments, but finally made the heart-wrenching decision to stop treatment and begin hospice care.
As I face this final chapter of my life, my deepest concern isn’t for myself, it’s for my children. How will they continue to thrive? How will they heal? How will they carry on in a world without me? I am starting this fundraiser to ensure that my children have the stability, care, and love they need both now and after I’m gone. My goal is to raise $30,000 to help provide for:
•Housing and Utilities – to maintain a safe and stable home for them
•Household Essentials – basic supplies and hygiene products every growing child needs
• Clothing & School Supplies – so they feel confident and prepared each day
• Counseling & Mental Health Support, to help them process grief, trauma, and loss
• Programs & Activities – to keep them engaged, grounded, and reminded of joy even in these dark times
• Cremation Services – to ensure my passing is handled with dignity and does not create an additional financial burden for my children
I want to give my children the tools to cope, to grow, and to continue becoming the amazing people they are meant to be, even as they face losing their mother far too soon.
Every gift, no matter the size, is a blessing. If you are unable to donate, sharing this with your friends and family is equally meaningful. Your support means more than words can ever express.
Thank you for helping me protect and care for what matters most, my precious children.
With all my love and gratitude,
Jilleena Bailey
