Support Nick and Tanya's Road to Recovery

Donation protected
Earlier in the year, my brother-in-law Nick was diagnosed with cancer. At 34 years old, the news was a shock to him and my sister, Tanya, but they faced it with strength and determination. Nick underwent an extensive surgery about 2 months ago in an effort to remove the cancer, but the road to recovery hasn’t been easy. He is making progress but continues to face ongoing complications as he goes through the healing process.

As if the physical and emotional toll of cancer diagnosis and treatment weren’t enough, just three weeks after Nick’s surgery Tanya gave birth to their second child—a beautiful baby girl who has brought so much joy to their family. They are doing their best to balance everything, but the reality of missed work, mounting medical bills, and the day-to-day challenges of caring for a newborn and their 4-year old son has been, and will continue to be, difficult.

Nick and Tanya face an uncertain future as the financial burden begins to pile up, and we are asking for your support for them as they fight this uphill battle to get back to some semblance of normalcy. Your generous donations will help with medical expenses, household bills, and essential care for their family. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference as they navigate the tough months ahead.

Thank you for considering supporting Nick and Tanya. Your kindness and generosity will provide them with the relief they need to focus on what truly matters—Nick’s health, their family, and their future together.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The Bratten’s
