Dear friends and family,
I am reaching out to you today with a heavy heart to share that my sister-in-law, Kepa, has been bravely battling cancer. As you can imagine, this is a challenging time for her and my brother, Shane, and the kids as they navigate this difficult journey together. The doctors have informed us that she has been given three months to live due to her battle with cancer. This news has been incredibly difficult for the family, and we are trying to navigate this challenging time together.
They have seven beautiful, outgoing, loving and precious children who rely on their parents not only for love and support but also for stability during this trying time. We want to do everything we can to help lighten their burden as they face medical treatments and the everyday challenges life throws at them.
To provide support for Kepa and their family, we are organizing a fundraiser to help cover daily needs, and to ensure that their children have the resources they need during this time, to alleviate some of the financial and emotional stress they are experiencing.
We would greatly appreciate your support, whether through donations, sharing this post, or simply sending positive thoughts and lots of prayers their way. Together, we can make a difference in their lives.
If you’d like to donate or learn more about how you can help, please leave a comment or send me a direct message. I will put my venmo in the comments. Thank you for being supportive and for standing by our family during this incredibly difficult time.
With gratitude,
The Taravella family ❤️
