Support Rebecca Ream's Battle Against Brain Cancer

Help Rebecca (Slovesko) Ream Fight Brain Cancer Without the Burden of Medical Debt

Hi, my name is Jesika Wilhelm, and I’m reaching out with a heavy but hopeful heart to ask for your support for someone incredibly dear to me—my mom, Rebecca Ream.

Earlier this year, our world was turned upside down when my mom was diagnosed with a very rare brain cancer, High-grade astrocytoma with piloid features (HGAP). The news was devastating. Rebecca is the heart of our family—an endlessly kind, selfless, and strong woman who has always put others before herself. Whether it was watching her granddaughter, Cora, volunteering in our church, or offering a listening ear to anyone in need, she has always been a source of light and love.

Rebecca faced her diagnosis with incredible courage. She underwent surgery in May and is fighting with grace and determination, never once complaining, even on the hardest days. Her strength has been nothing short of inspiring. She faces additional treatments with a long battle ahead.

But as anyone who has faced a serious illness knows, the emotional toll is only part of the battle. The financial burden has been overwhelming. Despite insurance, the out-of-pocket costs for her treatment, medications, follow-up care, and travel to specialists have added up quickly. My mom has always been fiercely independent, but the mounting bills are now more than she can manage alone.

That’s why I’m asking for your help.

We’ve set up this GoFundMe to help cover the medical expenses that continue to pile up. Every dollar raised will go directly toward paying for Rebecca’s treatment and recovery. Your support will not only ease the financial stress but also allow her to focus on what truly matters—healing and spending time with her loved ones.

If you know my mom, you know how much she has given to others. Now it’s our turn to give back to her.

Please consider donating, sharing this campaign, and keeping Rebecca in your thoughts and prayers. No contribution is too small—every bit helps and means the world to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support.

With gratitude,

Jesika Wilhelm and the Ream Family
