Support Our Fight: Breast Cancer Journey

OK, here it goes. My family is fighting a huge battle with me currently. I have stage 3 high-grade invasive ductal carcinoma breast cancer (3 masses and they say 20 to 30 lymph nodes involved) on my left side, diagnosed 8/15/2024. I have already done 7 chemo treatments and have 8 more to go.

Around March 2025, I will be having a radical double mastectomy with lymph node removal and possible chest wall muscle removal, which will put me out of work. Everyone I know knows this will drive me crazy (I'm the caretaker type). To follow this will be 30 to 35 radiation treatments from hip to neck for 6 to 7 weeks, Monday through Friday. Then a pill for 10 years. This money is for my family to pay the bills while I am unable to work. This doesn't include any medical equipment I will be needing.

Some of my family is encouraging me to not wait to start a GoFundMe, so I am going to be creating one soon. My little family unit appreciates every dollar, share, and prayer from you all.
