If you know Mary, you know she’s a fighter—with a huge heart, a sharp sense of humor, and the kind of strength that inspires everyone around her.

Right now, she’s facing the fight of her life.

Mary was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma, which has spread to multiple areas of her body. After exhausting several treatment options locally, her care team has referred her to MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, one of the top cancer hospitals in the world.

She will be making multiple trips to Houston for specialized treatment, which comes with significant travel, lodging, food, and out-of-pocket medical expenses—all while she and her family navigate the emotional and financial toll of a life-threatening diagnosis.

How You Can Help:
1. Pray, encourage, and uplift Mary as she walks this road with courage.
2. You can help offset the burden of Mary’s care through a donation so she can focus on her recovery.
3. Share this page with your friends, family, and community.

How Your Donation Helps:
• Flights and travel to/from Houston
• Short-term housing near MD Anderson during treatment
• Daily food and necessities
• Out-of-pocket medical bills not covered by insurance

We are so deeply grateful for your generosity, love, and support. Every prayer, dollar, share, or kind word makes a difference.

Funds not used will be donated to support St. Jude.

Let’s rally around Mary and help her focus on healing, not logistics. ❤️
