Help Lizzy Continue the Fight Against Rare & Aggressive Cancer

If you know Lizzy, you know she is kind and empathetic, but not afraid to stand her ground. Connecting with herself and others is a large part of what makes her who she is and she never fails to show up for the people she loves, even if it costs her.

At 26, Lizzy was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer (mucosal melanoma) and has courageously managed it with her care team through surgeries, procedures, and various forms of treatment. After her most recent scans, we received heartbreaking news: the cancer has spread to her intestines and is now classified as Stage 4.

Despite this setback, there is hope.

Her doctors have recommended a targeted therapy that could significantly slow the progression of her cancer and give her more time. If the treatment is effective, she'll likely need to continue taking it indefinitely.

The challenge is the cost. Without insurance, this medication can cost up to $26,000 every month.

Throughout much of her treatment, Medicaid has allowed Lizzy access to the care she needs. Unfortunately, she is at risk of losing that coverage. This puts much of her care and life-extending treatment in jeopardy.

We're asking for your help to make sure the financial barriers don't determine Lizzy's future.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will go towards:

If you're unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser with your friends, family, and community is just as meaningful.

Cancer is hard enough as it is, no one should have to wonder whether they can afford the treatment keeping them alive.

Thank you for supporting Lizzy, believing in her, and helping give her the chance to continue this fight. Your kindness, generosity, and prayers mean more than we can express!

With love,

Lizzy's friends and family <3
