Hello, my name is Ahnorae, but most know me as Ruby. I am 36 years old with four boys, all under the age of 18. I have some news to share with all my family, friends, and beloved clients. Most of you are aware that I have worked extremely hard to establish my tattoo shops and restaurant, as well as divide my time between Florida and Ohio. In addition to all of this, I have had to endure hardships with my health and personal life, and I am asking for your help.

In the coming months, I will be unable to work as much as I would like to. I have multiple surgeries and a battle with cancer for the 3rd time that I don't plan to give up on. I am asking my community, my family, and my friends to support me on this journey. Every dollar counts, and it will assist me to stay afloat while my kids and I face this challenging time in my life. I love you all and appreciate any and all assistance you can provide.

I got my results back on 12/19/25, right before Christmas, so of course, it hit like a ton of bricks. Nobody wants to hear the word cancer in life at all. We won’t know until after surgery if they were able to remove it all or if there will be more treatments needed. With this being said, the cervical cancer is affecting me as a woman, causing my legs and lower back pain because my uterus is now reverted from it and pushing on my spine. In June, I have a follow-up for breast cancer again because my first testing here in December did not give them confidence to tell me I’m in the clear. I had multiple masses/cysts, but very dense breasts, so it could be hiding again. I am doing my best to stay working and control my lupus on top of it all.

I just want to continue to be a mom to my boys and make sure not to fall too far behind!!

Thank you for even reading my story.
