Makaila Simmons is a wife, mother of two young girls, cherished daughter, and beloved friend. She is also living with cancer. Diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer as a healthy, 29-year-old mother of two is never something you'd expect, but it is the road that the Lord has put before her. Through His strength, she is walking this path with grace and love in ways that most of us couldn't dream.

The good news: Makaila has responded incredibly to a very specific, targeted medication that kills the cancer cells in her body. Not only has the cancer not grown (which was what doctors had hoped for), but it has significantly shrunk and even eradicated in specific areas.

This medication is something Makaila will be on for the rest of her life. It has low side effects, allowing her to continue her life as a wife, mother, and friend, and even allows her to continue working. It is also a massive expense.

God has graciously provided a treatment that is working — shrinking cancer and giving Makaila precious time with her family. We are able to be a part of how He sustains that miracle. Giving now helps ensure Makaila can remain on the life-saving treatment God has placed before her, allowing her to continue walking this road with faith, strength, and hope. Your generosity today is a tangible way to be the hands and feet of Christ for this family in a moment that truly matters.
