My name is Tades , and I am currently walking through one of the most challenging seasons of my life—a season that has tested my body, my emotions, my faith, and my stability. I am on a breast cancer journey, fighting a battle I never expected to face. This journey has brought moments of fear and uncertainty, but it has also revealed a resilience and strength within me that only God could have placed there.

As many know, I have been undergoing treatments and doing everything in my power to stay strong and focused on healing. In the midst of this, another unexpected hardship occurred: I was displaced from my position with my employer while on FMLA leave. Losing my job during this vulnerable time has not only been emotionally difficult, but it has created a significant financial strain as I continue medical treatments, attend appointments, and try to maintain stability during recovery.

Because of these challenges, I have made the difficult decision to start a GoFundMe. This is not easy for me. I am used to being strong, independent, and the one helping others. But this season has taught me humility, the importance of community, and the courage to ask for support when life becomes heavier than I can manage alone.

I am sharing my story not for sympathy, but with the hope that those who feel led will stand with me—through prayers, through encouragement, or through financial support. Every act of kindness makes a difference and helps lift a burden during this difficult time. Despite everything, I remain grounded in faith, trusting that God is guiding me, strengthening me, and carrying me through each step of this journey.

Thank you for listening to my story, for supporting me, and for walking beside me as I continue fighting toward healing and brighter days ahead.
