Support Melissa and Brian's Cancer Battle

Help Melissa and Brian Ward Through Their Battle with Cancer. Melissa has been diagnosed with a super rare cancer.

Hey frens,

Today, we’re reaching out for two cherished members of our family—Melissa and Brian Ward. In our frenship, we’re more than just a community; we come together to support each other across these groups through every season of life, the highs and the lows.

Now, our family needs us. Melissa has recently been diagnosed with both liver and lung cancer, and while her doctors are hopeful that treatment will give her quality time, they’ve shared that her journey with us will be shorter than we’d hoped. She and Brian are determined to face this battle head-on, but they’re also facing enormous medical expenses, travel for treatments, and the everyday costs of managing life while focusing on her care.

This is our moment to come together for Melissa and Brian, to show them that no frens fight alone. Whether you’re able to give a little or a lot, every bit will go directly toward easing the financial burden they’re facing. Together, we can give them the chance to focus on what matters most—making memories, spending time together, and finding strength in the love of their frens.

Let’s rally around the Wards with everything we’ve got. Share this, donate if you can, and remind Melissa and Brian that they’ve got an entire family of frens standing beside them through every step of this fight.

Thank you for anything you can do to support the Wards. Family means that no one is ever alone.
