My name is Nicole, and since September 2025, I have been fighting breast cancer. Over the past several months, I have undergone two surgeries and four rounds of chemotherapy. On February 11, 2026, I completed my last treatment and am so grateful to share that I am now cancer free. While this is a huge milestone, my journey isn’t over yet. I still need to have two more surgeries, including a double mastectomy with tissue fillers scheduled for March 17, 2026.

As the owner of a salon, I am self-employed, which means if I don’t work, I don’t get paid. My doctors expect I’ll be out of work for at least three months while I recover from these upcoming procedures. This is a difficult reality, as I rely on my income to cover my living expenses, transportation, food, medical bills, and the costs of keeping my business afloat.

I am reaching out to my community for support during this challenging time. Any donation, no matter the size, will help me focus on healing and getting back to serving my clients. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to me. Thank you for being part of my journey to recovery.
