Update 8/9/25: 
 
Hello to all my friends, family, and supporters! I am incredibly thankful for all of the donations, shares, and support we've received during this journey so far. Your help has provided much needed financial relief during a difficult time for my family. 
 
I've made the difficult decision to ask again if anyone is able to donate or share this request. Asking for help is not easy for me as I've always been able to figure out how to get by on my own. I've now found myself in another hard spot and don't know what to do. My disability payments are not enough and I'm not able to return back to work just yet. Between back to school, never ending medical bills, and the increased prices on everything to survive, I am needing some more financial assistance. Please donate if you can or share. My family and I are deeply grateful. Thank you. 
 
Update: 
 
On January 3rd, 2025, I was given the diagnosis of Grade 4 Glioblastoma. This is an aggressive Cancer diagnosis requiring and even more aggressive treatment plan. I have started radiation treatments with chemo starting soon. It will be about a month of treatment before assessing if the tumor is responsive. 
 
On December 3rd, following months of debilitating migraines, numerous ER, Urgent Care, Dr’s visits, MRIs, and endless tests, Samantha was diagnosed with hydrocephalus and a malignant brain tumor and will be having a craniotomy on 12/19 in order to analyze and remove as much of the tumor as possible before working with doctors to put a treatment plan in place once more information is gathered. 
 
With the support of family and friends, Samantha is navigating next steps as they come. Over the period of multiple doctor's visits and testing, medical costs have added up and will continue to climb with surgery and additional treatments in the immediate and long-term future. In addition to medical costs, providing for her family will be a major financial burden moving forward. While short-term disability should kick in soon, the cost of home and medical expenses far exceeds the means to provide for everything. 
 
The goal of this GoFundMe is to provide a much-needed financial cushion to allow Samantha the ability to seek the best treatment while also caring for herself, her 2 children and husband, who have been a source of steadfast support and love. All donations are welcome and will be utilized to offset medical and living expenses. Please also feel free to share this fundraiser on social media and with anyone you know, who may wish to help.
